About

<p>The cabins (with the exception of two) require you to hike in from a designated trailhead. The shortest hike is 100 yards, and the longest is 9 miles. In the winter, snowshoes or cross-country skis are needed mid-November through May.</p>

<p>Each cabin sleeps two to eight people and is equipped with bunk beds, mattresses, a wood-heating stove, table/chair, fire circle, axe, bow saw and cooking and eating utensils. There is no running water or electricity. A vault toilet is located nearby (bring toilet paper). You must provide your own linens and towels</p>

<p>In addition to the wood-heating stove, a designated fire circle is provided. During the winter months, firewood is provided for heating purposes.</p>

<p>All of the cabins are located near a body of water, and those located on inland lakes are equipped with a boat and personal flotation devices. Unless carried in, all drinking water should be boiled for one minute or filtered through a 0.5-micron filter. Some commercial chemicals or treatments may also work. No hand pumps are available.</p>
