Pear Lake Ski Hut, Mountain hut in Sequoia National Park, United States.
The Pear Lake Ski Hut stands at 9,200 feet elevation in the Sierra Nevada mountains, constructed with local granite and timber materials.
The Civilian Conservation Corps built this structure between 1939 and 1941, following the National Park Service rustic architectural guidelines for mountain facilities.
The winter quarters accommodate ten guests and include separate living space for a hut keeper who maintains the facility during the snowy season.
Visitors must complete a demanding six-mile hike from Wolverton Meadow, climbing 2,000 feet in elevation to reach the mountain shelter.
The structure functions as both a winter ski shelter and a summer ranger station, serving different purposes throughout the seasonal changes.
