    Amazing architecture. I’ve never looked up Montebello to see if it is in the ‘ski region’s of Quebec….but if it is, I’m sure the builders planned to build this log station.

    Also happy to know it serves a purposeful after life too. I’d be sad if this station was ever removed due to what looks like its ‘one of a kind’ design.
