Water level in the lake fluctuates frequently and there are many submerged logs around the perimeter so extreme care is needed while taxiing and docking a floatplane. A falling lake level can strand a plane parked on the beach and make it very difficult to launch again. So watch lake level closely.

We both really enjoyed I stay at Log Jam. A couple of things that I think will be helpful to others is to know that the cabin has a fair amount of cooking pans and supplies that have been left by previous users, so really no reason to bring more. If you plan to fish in the lake bring a small electric or gas motor. It's not necessary because the boat has paddles, but it will keep you from working so hard especially if it is windy. I wish the cabin had a canoe instead of the aluminum boat. We had a lot trouble finding a pilot that had experience flying to the lake, it would be nice if there was a list some where matching pilots to cabins. The beach is probably about a 3/4 mi walk thru woods and is very interesting scenery. We did not see bears but saw signs of bears, deer and many other animals. There's first aid kits in the cabin.

Cabin was in good shape. Water cistern was mostly full. Trail to beach was abnormally dry. Clearly it had not rained as much as normal in some time there. We did not see any deer.

Great cabin, in a beautiful location. There were two smalls oars for the row boat, bring in kerosene/heating oil for the stove. 15 minute muddy walk to the cabin from the beach.
