Plans to rebuild the Mount Charleston Lodge are still in the works as winter sets in on the Spring Mountains, officials said.

Reached Wednesday, the lodge’s operations manager Thomas Schneekloth said rebuilding the mountain restaurant after it was destroyed in a fire this fall is an ongoing process. The lodge’s owners hopes to break ground in the spring, he said.

An accidental fire destroyed the lodge restaurant on Sept. 17, leaving rubble in place of the iconic A-frame restaurant. No one was injured. Both site cleanup and construction depend on the winter weather and the speed and effectiveness of the supply chain, Schneekloth said.
