The Rock Cabin is in North Cascades National Park, in the U.S. state of Washington.[2] Constructed by trapper John Dayo in the 1920s, the cabin was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[3]

Rock Cabin is a three-sided wood cabin which was built against a cliff, with one side of the cabin being the cliff face. The cabin is 9.5 ft (2.9 m) wide at front and 15 ft (4.6 m) long.[3] The cabin has saddle-notched corners and a wood shake roof which abuts the cliff face.[3] The shelter is on the Fisher Creek trail.[3][4]
