Nice, scenic, flat ski into the cabin, about 2 miles from trailhead. There is a set of bunkbeds and two cots for sleeping. Look for the second cot, which may be stowed under the other beds (we found it the second night). We had a wonderful stay!

Great place, kind of a dead end to turn a trailer around. Gate by the corral would be no problem it was a couple hundred yards around the bend.. Made it work, glad it wasn't muddy. Thanks!

Wapiti is one of my favorite winter cabins. We barely got enough snow to ski into the cabin. It's been upgraded since last winter: new window hinges and a bunk bed! There are now 2 cots and a bunk bed. 4 chairs at the table. Pots for melting snow. The previous guests didn't clean out the wood stove very well, so we cleaned it both before and after our fires. Please note: the axe is EXTREMELY dull and doesn't do much for splitting the logs. There was an awl there that allowed us to have something sharp to split the wood. Volunteers had set up mouse traps and one was "occupied" so we had to clean that out and then reset the traps before leaving. Just be aware if you have dogs or little kids that traps are present. Always a joy visiting Wapiti!

We were unable to make it to the cabin for our reservation. Something came up last minute. We have been there a few times before and love it.

Wapiti is one of my favorite winter cabins. As with all FS cabins, be prepared with your own supplies including TP. Plenty of snow this year to use for water (bring a filter). Remember to clean out the wood stove. We arrived and it was full plus had hot coals. :( Table with 4 chairs. 4 cots. Oversized pans to use for melting snow. The cabin is definitely showing wear. Wishing people would take care of gems like this. We visited on a new moon and the stars were incredible. Be sure to go outside and check it out at night!!

Cabin was excellent. Awesome location and amenities. Only issue was that the Gallatin Valley Snowmobile Association was supposed to start grooming on Dec 2nd and had not yet. We had to break trail down to the cabin with two snowmobiles and one with a sled trailer. Going in was not too bad as we found some semi-visible old tracks. It snowed that evening and the next morning was tough. We were breaking trail uphill in a few feet of snow and got stuck about 8 times. It was miserable and with no cell signal we started to get concerned if we'd make it out. It took an hour to get to the cabin and almost 4 hours to get out. So the moral of the story is, unless you are running a hot rod sled, or following a lot of other snowmobiles in, I'd make sure they are grooming this one. Otherwise, it's a fantastic spot and cabin!
