This cabin is phenomenal that I would rate 9 out of 10. The only thing this cabin doesn't have that other ranger cabins have is a sink and a porch. This cabin has all the comforts you want with plenty of beds for your family and a couch/chair to sit and talk. With the cabin sitting near 10,000 and the surrounding peaks reaching above 11,000 there are plenty of places to explore or just stay at the cabin and enjoy the views.
