CRAWFORD’S PURCHASE — Pemigewasset District Ranger Brooke Brown has OK'd extending the reach of the existing Appalachian Mountain Club Hut/Pinkham Notch Visitor Center permit under which the Boson-based non-profit organization operates the facility off Route 16 in the Androscoggin Ranger District.

On Thursday, April 4, Brown signed the Decision Memo to allow clearing and “dirt work” to go forward, creating a long-term airlift helicopter 150-by-150-foot site to serve the AMC Lake of the Clouds Hut. USFS realty specialist Jenny Burnett noted in an email exchange that this is not, as expected, a separate permitted use.
