Mingo says

The cabin is open all year, so a winter stay is possible if you can ski or snowshoe in. The Tors Trailhead lies within the campground itself, so the trail starts right where the cabin is.

Before you go

• Bring a generator with a double male cord if you want power, since the cabin has an electricity hookup.
• Book online through Alaska State Parks up to 90 days out, staying no more than 5 nights.
