Fern Lake Patrol Cabin, Ranger station in Rocky Mountain National Park, United States.
The Fern Lake Patrol Cabin features wood construction and National Park Service rustic architecture designed by Daniel Ray Hull in Colorado's mountain landscape.
Built in 1925 under National Park Service supervision, the cabin served as a base for rangers monitoring and protecting the surrounding wilderness areas.
The structure represents National Park Service design principles that emphasized using natural materials to create functional spaces within protected environments.
Located at coordinates 40.338056, -105.676111 in Larimer County, the cabin provided essential support for park operations until its destruction in 2020.
