Less than a mile from camp is a white building. It is the Mars Habitat. It was completed by the 2000 HMP camp for the Mars Society. It is designed to be a analogue of what a research station world be on Mars. Unfortunately, the Mars Society has not participated in the last several HMP seasons. So the Habitat is currently not being used.
There is much more info on the project available but wikipedia is a good place to start.
