This is a first aid cache at the base of the ravine, about 300 yards past Hermit Cabin. In the summertime, it seems to always be locked, but I assume that it's used during the winter skiing season. Notice the Tuckerman Ravine in the background- the headwall is a steep climb with several waterfalls along the way. Check out the following Quicktime movie that I made using several still frames taken at increasing focal length from this location, showing how far it is to the top.
