Season: Summer
The Mystic Lake Patrol Cabin is located on the north side of Mount Rainier along the Wonderland Trail. It can be accessed as a long day hike from Carbon River or Sunrise or as part of a backpack of the Wonderland Trail.
This patrol cabin was constructed in 1931 during the administration of Superintendent O.A. Tomlinson, when a string of patrol cabins and trail shelters were built along the Wonderland Trail to accommodate backcountry rangers on patrol and provide shelter for the hiking public.
It has been modified over the years and in 1982 it was slated for demolition to be replaced by a new cabin in 1983. Since it has been re-built, it does not contribute to the Mount Rainier National Historic Landmark District.
