Anyone know the name of this hut? I can't find squat for info about it.

Fowler/Hilliard is actually below Resolution Mountain. There's nothing on top of Ptarmigan Hill except for some radio towers of some kind.
Edit: Did some digging and found this. Looks like this is what's on top:

Don't think I want to stay in that!
