The camground facilities are basic but very welcome in such a remote area. There are hot showers run from a donkey boiler and flushing toilets. The really special thing is being able to enter Molly's home and view station life from an earlier time, and place the camp fee in the honesty box. It is wonderful that there can be such trust, and that it is respected.
