Dragon-poo from Sparwood who has been a great help throughout the construction phase and local member Ryan Ingram for his first trip out to the site. Ryan has been a great help with material supply and logistics.

That's two great questions Ken. The ol' Wranglers Cabin and the issues it creates is why we have a new cabin in the new location. We, the Fernie Snowmobile Assoc., do not have the lease for the land but we own the cabin. The reason we have a new cabin is due to the fact that the lease holders
wanted no additions nor renovations to the Wranglers. So the FSA moved forward and what you see is what you get sort of thing. We will do what is necessary to keep the ol' cabin functional but it is a money pit and most of the users are non-paying visitors (no memberships nor trail passes). For the present, it will be a normal operation at the Wranglers. For the future, I don't know!
As far as a name, it is presently known as the Rolling Hills cabin.

The gable flashing and ridge cap are all that is remaining for the roof. The zoom boom had a little malfunction today, otherwise we would have been finished up there......

I know when and where I can help out on this 
When your ready or about to be ready for your insul and poly. Give me a couple of day's notice, and i can slam in it for you in a day. I might be able to get our company to donate the poly as well???
Heck...... use the groomer to pull me up and back down, and I could give you a deal on some 2lbs spray foam insulation.

Hey man now we're talking! I need some more information on the spray foam; we were wondering about it for the underside of the floor. Would that be an applicable application? Rodent resistant? Or doo we need to cover it with OSB or something? How about my truck to pull you up with your foam machine?
I can easily arrange the insulation/poly thingy. That should be real soon. Chimney will be on site on Monday and I'm hoping to install on Tuesday.

Hahahaha..........no we aren't Glen. I would like to catch you underneath when I have a camera ready!
We will sign it but there will always be some dumbies who can't or won't read and I hope they are people who haven't bought a trail pass!!!!
The roof is an 8/12 pitch so it should avalanche quite regularly and the accumulation shouldn't be that much. but when it comes down it will pack a whollop!

I spray 2lbs closed cell insul, no it isn't rodent resistant
It is basic white styrofoam, that is purple (that does not absorb water, humidity or mold) It's an R-7 per inch with the vapor barrier throughtout. I can spray to anyting except water, so yes.... the under side of the floor would be applicable. My truck is a 2 wheel drive, 2012 Hino 195 and i'll post a pic soon.Also it should be covered with osb, drywall,or a thermal barrior like URE-K. OSB would be the best route.
Ball park guesstimate is $1.20/sq ft/inch.
Travel time, labour, accomindations, can be negotiated

My truck is the first one in the pic. And we think sled wraps cost $$$$ LOL. As well as a couple of misc foam pics.
