## Overview

 Pigot Bay Cabin is tucked away in a secluded and picturesque area of Prince William Sound. It is open year-round, offering an ideal base for exploration, recreation and relaxation. The area can be accessed by float plane or boat, depending on conditions. The cabin is reached via a trail from the beach. Visitors are responsible for their own travel arrangements and safety, and must bring several of their own amenities including sleeping pad, sleeping bag, cook stove, toilet paper, cook pots and utensils as well as some form of water treatment. 
## Recreation

 The topography is very rugged, which limits hiking in the area. Visitors can bring kayaks to explore the bay along the coast of Port Wells, but should consult the [local tide reports][1] in advance for their safety. Fishing is fair for pink salmon in late July and early August in freshwater streams and the saltwater of the bay. Saltwater fishing is possible for halibut and red snapper (rockfish) near Pigot Bay and the western shore of Esther Island. Pigot Bay also offers some good shrimping spots. Digging for butter clams is possible on the few gravel beaches at the head of the bay. Hunting for deer and bear is allowed in designated seasons with the proper permits. Blueberries and raspberries are also available for picking in season.
## Natural Features

 Pigot Bay Cabin is located on a tall bluff overlooking Pigot Bay. The bay is mostly steep-sided, but has a wide, shallow outwash valley at its head. The cabin sits at the edge of a dense evergreen forest, offering views over the bay to the mountains and glaciers beyond. Black bears, bald eagles and waterfowl (mainly geese at the head of the bay) are common visitors to the area ([learn about bear safety][2]). Mountain goats are sometimes seen on the surrounding cliffs. Prince William Sound supports such species as Dall's and harbor porpoises, harbor seals, sea otters and sea lions. A lucky few may even spot a pod of orcas or a humpback whale.
