This is all that's left of a cabin built by Charles and Moss Ives in 1903 (Charles Ives was a well-known composer). Here is a picture of what the cabin originally looked like: vizettes.com/trailmaps/fcnemba-trailmaps/bennettspond/bp-images/Ives_Shanty.jpg You can see from the picture that the cabin had an incredible view down the mountain, which may have inspired Ives' work.
