What Once Was Normal

The Great Cairn Hut is an island of refuge amongst an imposing blue ice and barren rock landscape. With the exception of a pine marten, this tiny, poetic stone shelter is the only sign of habitation, rarely visited and perfect for all these reasons. Also known as the Ben Ferris Hut, the rustic structure sits at the foot of Mount Sir Sanford (3519m) in the northern part of the Selkirk Mountain range.
