This small stone shelter at Muir Pass was constructed in 1930 by the Sierra Club and named after the famous John Muir. It is located at the John Muir Trail (JMT) as well as the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) and is also known as John Muir Memorial Shelter. It serves as an emergency shelter as well as a memorial.

Inside you will find a single open chamber with a sixteen-foot high ceiling showing the shape of the cone-shaped roof, stone seating, and a stone fireplace with raised hearth, mantel, and external chimney.
