Middle Dangerous River Cabin

Nestled on the banks of the glacial Dangerous River, the Middle Dangerous River Cabin offers an unparalleled opportunity to experience the rugged beauty of Southeast Alaska. This remote retreat is situated approximately 30 miles southeast of Yakutat, providing a secluded escape for those looking to immerse themselves in nature. The surrounding terrain is defined by the powerful, shifting currents of the river and the vast, untamed landscape that makes this region so iconic.

This federal site is best suited for experienced outdoor enthusiasts and backcountry adventurers who are prepared for self-sufficient travel. Accessing the cabin is an adventure in itself, requiring travel by jetboat, ATV, or a four-mile hike from the Dangerous River Bridge. Because the site is primitive and lacks hookups, visitors must plan to bring all necessary supplies for their stay.

The cabin serves as an excellent basecamp for those interested in wildlife watching, hunting, and exploring the local trail systems. While the site provides basic fire rings for outdoor cooking, it remains a true wilderness experience. Whether you are looking to disconnect from the grid or pursue local outdoor recreation, this year-round destination offers a raw and authentic Alaskan experience.
