History
Around 1985, after the snaring ban, Basil Steers, assisted by his son Philip and friend Tim Jetson, built a concealed hut where he planned to continue trapping possums.
Little of this happened, but it was used by the family for hunting generally
By 1989 the area was included in the Cradle Mt-Lake St Clair National Park.
