About This Location

Discover the remote beauty of Frosty Bay Cabin in Alaska. Perfect for anglers and explorers, this USFS cabin offers year-round access by float plane or boat.

Frosty Bay Cabin provides a truly rugged and authentic Alaskan wilderness experience. Located 36 miles south of Wrangell, this secluded site serves as an ideal base camp for those looking to immerse themselves in the pristine landscapes of the region. Accessible only by float plane or boat, the area is celebrated for its excellent anchorages and serves as a gateway to the untamed beauty of the Alaskan coast, sitting at an elevation of 121 feet.

Nature enthusiasts will find plenty to explore, with abundant opportunities for hiking and fishing right at their doorstep. The surrounding waters are a haven for anglers, particularly during the peak salmon runs; King salmon are common from May to July, followed by pink salmon in July and August, and silver salmon later in the season. The area is also well-suited for crabbing and hunting expeditions for those prepared for a self-sufficient journey.

As a USFS-managed site, this location is best suited for experienced outdoorsmen and adventurers who are comfortable with remote, off-the-grid travel.
