The Crawford Notch RT 302 crossing has always been a bit of a desolate place in the whites. AMC started running shuttles a few years ago but access to resupply was normally a hitch or a real long walk. It is interesting that the AMC would build another facility on leased land as they reportedly had elected to only build new major facilities on land they owned after their near miss on losing the hut system on USFS land years back. Given the states perpetual need for funding I expect they can have a lot more control over the terms of the lease versus than when on federal land.

Nevertheless if built its nice future option for those planning section hikes.
