Pioneer Cabin is a mountain cabin built on a ridge overlooking the main crest of the Pioneer Mountains. This cabin was originally built to be a destination cabin in the design of cabins in the European Swiss Alps. Although the cabin never became a destination retreat, it is open to the public. Even though there are some bunk beds in the cabin and a few supplies, it is rarely used as a camping destination and mostly used as a lunch spot for day hikers, such as ourselves. Our hike took the main trail to the cabin, and on the way down I took a slight detour to climb the small unnamed peak 9311.
