That little cabin is generally referred to as the "Geologists Cabin". That large land mass that you refer to is Striped Butte, and yes, I believe that is the origin of the valley's name, "Butte Valley". The story I heard was that the cabin was built specifically for a team of Geologists that were studying Striped Butte. At certain times of the day, the Butte can be really beautiful. The bands are varying shades of grey,and pink.
