High Lea Open-Air Shelter

The High Lea open-air shelter includes three (3) picnic tables and two (2) grills with a concrete floor.

This A-frame shelter has a fire pit in the center of the concrete floor. The cooking area is a separate and adjacent octagon (eight-sided) shelter. Storage units are built into one side of the octagon, a trough sink tucked into another, and prep tables low enough to use from a chair are built into two sides. There is a table in the center of the octagon structure. A lantern hook hangs from a chain from the center of the peaked ceiling and can be raised and lowered by a pulley to adjust ambient lighting. An outhouse is nearby outhouse is available which includes a long ramp for accessibility.

High Lea is located between the summer horse stables and the gas cut. 

High Lea Shelter was part of the Crowell Hilaka Girl Scout camp.  High Lea along with the Octagon Kitchen and Skanawunda Meadow were used together and known by the name "High Lea Shelter", a ground tent site with handicapped accessible facilities. When Camp Julia Crowell was still new, this natural highland meadow surrounded by pine trees was a favorite place to pitch ground tents.
