GRAY KNOB
Originally built as a private cabin by Dr. E.Y. Hincks family in 1905, the original Gray Knob received many renovations over the course of its 84-year life. In 1989, the building was torn down and replaced with a new facility.
CRAG CAMP
Originally built in 1909, Crag for many years was the private camp of Nelson H. Smith. It has been maintained by the RMC since 1939, and, in 1993, was razed and replaced with a completely new building.
LOG CABIN
The Log Cabin is modeled after an Alaskan trapper style building. Built in 1985, it is the third building on this site, the first building being a bark shelter built in 1876 by Dr. W.G. Nowell and Charles E. Lowe as they were cutting Lowe’s Path. The new structure is dedicated to John H. Boothman, Jr., for many years a Randolph resident, trapper, guide and hotel owner.
THE PERCH
Originally consisting of a birch bark building, built by J. Rayner Edmands in 1892, The Perch was once the highest of a series of shelters in Cascade Ravine, which included Cliff Shelter and Cascade Camp. The original Perch was completely destroyed by the hurricane of September, 1938. The Perch was rebuilt on its original site, in 1948. The construction was supervised by the RMC’s Klaus Goetze, and the new facility was dedicated to Louis Fayerweather Cutter. It has since been renovated several times.
