Fox Creek Cabin (AK)

After leaving Devils Pass cabin the next stop on our journey was Fox Creek cabin. We knew it was going to be a long day because of the snow that was still on the tundra. The vast difference in terrain between Devils Pass and Fox Creek is amazing. You have the opportunity to witness some spectacular views. Fox Creek cabin is amazing! It is set off the trail quite a distance so it is very private. The view from the front porch is quite lovely and the access to the creek to get water is also very nice. The outhouses at all the cabins are such a luxury! I noticed that there was a horse trail behind the house, but did not explore due to being wiped out from our day. Note: East Creek cabin and Fox Creek cabin are quite a distance apart from one another so if you are trying to decide which cabin to take be aware that they are not within close proximity to one another.

This is a well built cabin with a great layout. However, the wood burning stove is suboptimal. There was zero air movement with the flue open (or closed). After a 10 mi ski we were tired and were looking forward to a warm cabin. However, we spent over 4 hours trying to get the wood stove warm. Ultimately the fire kept going out because of poor ventilation / maintenance of the wood stove. Very disappointing after a tiresome and cold ski in.

This cabin is impressively built! Lots of little woodworking touches--decorative hangers and steps on the bunks, complex and precise joinery on the shelves and countertop. For a wilderness cabin, this is a piece of art. Thanks to the FS and whoever put their heart into its construction.

beautiful cabin, fresh cut firewood, was clean and perfectly in order when we arrived. Loved the location and had a restful and peaceful night there.
