The Forest Service recreational cabins are located in some of the most productive fishing and hunting areas of the region.   Hiking trails provide access to beaches, streams, hunting areas, and countless opportunities to view and photograph magnificent scenery.  Fishing opportunities at the cabins include Steel Head, Rainbow, and Cutthroat trout, Dolly Varden, Grayling, and Salmon.

Most cabins are equipped with a wood heating stove (although a few have oil stoves), plywood bunks, and a table.  Cabin users should bring their own bedding. Air matresses, cooking and eating utensils, camp stoves and lanterns are available on a rental basis from Alaska Wilderness Outfitters.   Most cabins sleep four or more, but you should get specific information on any cabin you are interested in prior to making reservations.  (Equipment rental price list)

Skiffs are furnished by the Forest Service at most cabins located on lakes.  Oars are provided, but Alaska Wilderness Outfitting can supply a small outboard motor or an inflatable boat & motor to add to the enjoyment of your stay.
