Location
The cabin is located east of Seward Highway in the remote Paradise Valley on the north shore of Lower Paradise Lake.
Access
Accessible is by floatplane and is extremely difficult in the winter when the lake freezes. There is no trail near the cabin and access on foot is a most difficult 8-mile bushwhack from the east end of Ptarmigan Lake Trail, or 14 miles from North Fork Snow River Valley.
To arrange floatplane transportation from Moose Pass, contact Scenic Mountain Air.
Terrain
The cabin sits in a forest of alder, willow and pine trees at an elevation of about 1,340 feet.
Special Features
This remote location will give you the opportunity to stray from the beaten path and explore! Day hikes lead to even better views of glacier fields that loom above the cabin, and there is a variety of wildlife in the area including moose, black and brown bears, and mountain goats. A rowboat and oars provided at the cabin give anglers excellent opportunities to catch grayling. Hunting is popular during designated seasons.
