The bathrooms in the existing 6 cabins are also coming along. The new stalls are in and they are starting to clean up. The fixtures have not been replaced yet because they are going to match the rest of the cabins and the lodge.

Walls are coming along!
The framing is going up fast! I was very surprised when I saw plywood going up on one of them also. They have taken the ceilings off of where the old bathrooms were also so it is opening up nicely. The ceiling in the cabins will be vaulted with skylights to allow natural lighting during the day, thus reducing energy use and cost.

Flooring ans walls starting to go up!
The snow has been flying and the temperatures are super cold but the progress is still moving forward at at a steady pace. The ground is frozen and they are having to jack hammer 14-16 inches into the frozen ground just to get the footers set. They have started the walls on one side and the add on floors.
We are going to gradually move the electricity to underground for safety and maintenance purposes. The cabins are on lots of large rocks so doing this has proven to bit a bit of a challenge also but it coming along very well with some ingenuity.
The camp road has taken some wear and tear with all the moisture and heavy trucks so we are doing what we can to try to grade it in between freezings. We have asked H&M to help us out with gravel also.

Showers have arrived!
Even with this nasty weather, this construction crew (H&M) is on the ball! They have been working in super cold weather and snow and we APPRECIATE their work! The footers for the new areas in the front of the cabins were poured last week and this week they started the flooring. This will eventually be a large screened in porch that both sides of the cabin will share.
To my excitement, I looked out and saw these white cubed standing in front of the cabins yesterday. When I got closer I realized they are SHOWER STALLS for the remaining 6 cabins!! They are white and SO MUCH better than the 50+ year old galvanized ones. I didn't realize how much they were going to have to tear up to remodel, nor did I realize they were going to do them so fast! I am excited to see what they will look like!
