Managed by the Bureau of Land Management within the Eastern Interior Field Office, Ptarmigan Cr Tr Shelter sits roughly 28 miles west of campgrounds around Central and provides a shelter structure rather than a developed site with hookups or amenities. No pets are permitted. Nearby options include North Fork Trail Shelter, approximately 5.6 miles to the west, for campers routing through this corridor of interior Alaska.
Description
This small cabin is available on a first-come, first-served basis and is primarily intended as an emergency shelter. The cabin includes a water catchment system for collecting rain and melting snow; water should be treated before cooking or drinking. There is no stove in this shelter cabin, as it is intended only as a shield to the weather. Expect to camp at least one night along this 27mile trail.
