On my first visit I was surprised that an unusual wooden building had been built in the middle of the forest. From a biker's comment I know that it is the Sprötzehüsli. What is the purpose of this, what is being sprayed? Can someone enlighten me.

In the evening when it gets dark and the sun goes down, it's worth stopping for a moment. Mostly passable even in winter.
