There used to be a log cabin at the top of the mountain where you could buy hot chocolate and soup that was prepared and sold by the race team committee as a fundraiser. Unfortunately there was no running water or washroom facilities in the building, so it didn't meet health standards and when upgrades were done on the mountain in the 80's it was removed. The building at the top of the Governor's Express which is used by Ski Patrol is now called Captain Jack's in honour of the log cabin from the past. Kevin is right.

Jack's Galley. They usually look like they are vintage 1970's or 80's, and I did not see any trace of such a place on my recent visit to Marble. Can you shed any light on this?
