Hunter Mountain Ski Lodge Glulam

This past weekend we happened to attend an event at Hunter Mountain Ski Area in Hunter, NY and there we saw examples of our glulam work from the past.


This photo was taken in the interior of the ski lodge showing the curved rafters that tie into the straight roof beams.  If you look closely at the left of the photo you will notice that the roof beams have treated material feathered into untreated material where they approach the exterior wall.  This is because they are exposed outside of the wall to give the building a timber lodge look.

We delivered this material to Hunter Mountain in 1988 and it still looks like new.  Nearby is the older ski lodge, which we fabricated in 1964.  Glulam is perfect for ski lodges and chalets because it is durable and gives a beautiful timber feel to the building.  For more information, call us at 607-369-9341.
