Treehouse of the Day

Joel Allen built the HemLoft -- "a secret treehouse hiding in the woods of Whistler" -- in 2009, and it served as a private retreat for him and his girlfriend for several summers. But ever since Allen went public with his creation in Dwell Magazine, the HemLoft's future is uncertain -- turns out, it was built on Crown land. "If the wrong people find it, they may make me take it down," Allen said. Until then, he's welcoming visitors. [gizmag]
