feet. Guests enjoy the area for its endless winter recreation opportunities,
including cross-country skiing, back country downhill skiing, snowshoeing and

is used by Forest Service employees as a guard station.  
  
The cabin can comfortably accommodate four people on one double bed and one
single bed, each with mattresses, and one couch. More people can use sleeping
bags on the floor, but due to the cabin's size, group size is limited to eight
people. Guests need to bring their own food, toiletries, towels, bedding and
trash bags.  
  
The cabin is equipped with electricity, which powers the lights and a standard
four-burner stove and oven, but due to heavy snowfall on power lines,
electricity cannot be guaranteed at all times. Be prepared to cook meals on
the wood stove if the power is out. Firewood is provided, though it may need
to be split.

powered lantern and a wooden rack for drying clothes. The water system is
turned off during the winter season so the indoor flush toilet and running
water are not available. A vault toilet is located behind the station.

cabin's front porch affords breathtaking views of the rugged Sawtooth Mountain
Range to the south.
