Amazing place to stay for a couple nights! Took the canoe out for a paddle around the lake and saw spawning sockeye salmon in the inlet creeks, a bear trying to get some of them and many bald eagles. Very healthy ecosystem. Hope to visit again in the coming years..

Addition of the new wood stove was very nice to see. Better canoe paddles are now there. Broken bow seat in canoe has gotten worse. Creative use of rope has helped. Beautiful, as always. Mosquitoes thick, as always. Worth the hike, always.

Oil heater works well (1 gallon of #1 fuel oil is more than enough for one summer day and night). New canoe is a great addition. Now there are 2 canoes to handle when cabin is full with 4 people. Saw one bear late night beside picnic table. Bear sign along trail is least we've seen in past 5 years. Canoeing to the Situk river outlet and fishing are highly recommended. Spring in front of cabin is always nice as a water source (don't forget to treat or boil).
