Good jumping-off spot for exploration of various
bays and inlets in the northern Behm Canal area. The area
is noted for king salmon runs into the Unuk River, with
other salmon species, halibut, red snapper, and shrimp
also in abundance. Wildlife in the area include Sitka
blacktail deer, black bear, and wolf. A fresh -water lake
with trout is located about 1/2 mile upstream from the
cabin. There is no trail to the lake.
