In wintertime, bring cross country skis, snowshoes, and "grippers" to attach to your boots so you won't slip on ice. You never know what the ice and snow will be like. We used snowshoes and grippers, but it was way to icy and steep to use skis. You can easily walk from the cabin to the shore of the North Fork of the Flathead River in 30-40 minutes. Bring a pair of binoculars so if you have clear skies you can zoom in on the peaks of the continental divide. Bring a lot of water for drinking and for washing dishes and pans. We made some wonderful meals at the cabin. Expect to have a wonderful time.

Bring firewood for the outdoor firepit. Bring stadium style chairs for sitting on the metal grate benches around the fire. Reload the cabin's firewood from the shed, the combination is the same as the cabin (this info used to be in the instructions but the part that says it's actually in the shed wasn't on our instructions this year). Bolting the latch on the front door helped us keep the leak of cold air from entering. Bring a bright lamp for playing games in the dark, the propane mantel lanterns are not very bright. In the winter when you need to drain your dishwater into the vault toilet, it's handy to bring an empty 5 gallon bucket with a handle to make hauling easier. Bring old socks to put on the metal toilet seat... brrrr... at 10f. Enjoy the views!
