Description

Doors of the North Fork Trail Shelter open onto an expansive view of tundra-covered ridges. BLM Artist-in-Residence Brad DeFrees took this photo during his 2019 art residency on the Pinnell Mountain National Recreation Trail in Interior Alaska. "After hiking for miles along windy ridgelines, a trail shelter with a beautiful view feels like luxury," DeFrees said. He later used the scene as the subject of an art piece. Photo by Brad DeFrees, used with permission.

The Pinnell Mountain Trail has two trail shelters, each located about 10 miles from a trailhead and equipped with a rainwater capture system. Since the 27-mile-long trail traverses alpine ridges its entire length, water sources can be sparse, especially mid-summer. The small shelters, built to provide a safe spot to seek cover during inclement weather, are available on a first-come-first-served basis. They feature bunk style beds and a front porch.
