About
The Summit Trail Shelter, constructed in 2003, is a 10'x10' log cabin with 1 bunk bed and a table. The cabin is approximately 8 miles from the Wickersham Dome Trailhead adjacent to the Summit Trail and is generally intended for summer use. The small cabin offers emergency shelter during inclement weather, and is on a first come first serve basis. No fees are charged for its use. Unlike the other White Mountains cabins, it has no woodstove. The Summit trail is open to non-motorized use only.
