Mountain View Shelter

Accessed from the Maxwell Sno-park, the shelter is open for day use and overnight stays. Overnight maximum capacity is 15 persons. Visitors to the Mt. View Shelter can use either the Big Meadows road or the Maxwell Sno-Park parking areas; however, it is recommended that overnight visitors use the Maxwell area since there is a risk of vehicles at Big Meadows being temporarily "plowed in" in the event of a major snowfall overnight. Please report any misuse, vandalism or suggestions to the Detroit Ranger District.
