Climbers Rest in the Rock

A mountain refuge set into a dark rock face, with six rooms in two rows, all warmed by timber beams. Top left, a small museum has framed peaks, a pair of boots on a plinth and a grandfather showing a boy a route map. In the middle, two men play chess by a stone fireplace under hanging ropes and hooks. At the right, a letter room has hanging envelopes, with a woman and a man writing at their desks by a window. Downstairs, a reception hall has stone floors, backpacks and a clerk with a guest book as hikers check in. The next room is a gear workshop, a bearded man repairing a boot among rows of boots, rope and tools. At the far right, a clinic has a doctor in a white coat looking at an old walker's boot. Floors of rug, stone and tile set the rooms apart.
