Directions

Honker Lake Cabin is accessible by float plane or canoe along the Honker Divide Canoe Route. The cabin is 54 air miles from Ketchikan. In fall, winter, and early spring, the cabin may be inaccessible as float planes cannot land on the frozen lake surface. The canoe launch at Hatchery Creek Bridge is 6 miles to the cabin, and typically takes 7-8 hours of paddling. The canoe route is recommended at moderate to high water. There are several portages and some difficult upstream paddling. Refer to USGS map Craig D-3. Click here for information about reaching Forest Service Cabins. Inclement weather conditions may cause an extension of your trip during any time of the year and winter access can be difficult due to snow and ice conditions. Guests should bring extra supplies to last 2-5 days Please contact the Thorne Bay Ranger District at 907-828-3304 prior to arrival for more detailed information about safety precautions.
