Alaska's capital city, Juneau, may sport civic buildings but it also sits within easy reach of a wide range of outdoor pursuits, from cross country skiing and kayaking to glacier tours.
Access to the cabin is by float plane (20 minutes from Cordova) or boat (35 miles from Cordova) at high tide. Approach to cabin via boat or plane may be difficult at low tide because of the shallow lagoon. Click here for local tide information.
Please contact the Cordova Ranger District at (907) 424-7661 prior to arrival for more detailed information about safety precautions.

Anglers will find several creeks flowing into the bay. In mid-July, pink and chum salmon enter the bay to spawn in the creeks, with the coho salmon arriving in mid-August. Halibut can be found in the saltwater near the mouth of the bay and in the Sound. Although these creeks can be accessed from shore, the hike can be difficult at high tide when the creeks are flooded and deep, or at low tide when the mud flats are exposed (local tide tables). It is best to bring a small inflatable boat and motor to get around the bay to the creeks, and to fish the bay at low tide.
Hunters can take advantage of a long hunting season on the island and in the surrounding national forest. Bear season occurs during spring and fall, while deer season begins in late summer and lasts through late fall.
