Directions

From Petersburg, it is 28 miles by float plane. From Kake, it is 18 miles by boat or 1.75 miles from the roadside near Kake. A 15-foot tide is required for boats or float planes to directly access the cabin. A 1-mile hike across mudflats is warranted at lower tides. Part of the trail crosses a tide flat, so there is no trail access during high tide. Please check tide charts in advance. The cabin can be found on USGS topographic map Petersburg D6. [Maps](http://ask.usgs.gov/to_order.html) are available online or by calling the Petersburg Ranger District at (907) 772-3871.
