About
Anchor Pass Cabin serves as a halfway point for those traveling around Revillagigedo Island in the Tongass National Forest. This secluded 12x14-foot pan-abode style cabin sits on the mainland shore across from the east end of Bell Island, approximately 50 air miles north of Ketchikan. The cabin is tucked into a forested area with a beach in front that may be submerged during high tides. The front deck offers spectacular views of the mountains of northern Revillagigedo Island. The cabin sleeps 4-6 people and is equipped with two single bunks, two double bunks, a table and benches, a wood stove, splitting maul, and cleaning equipment. An outhouse is located outside. The cabin has no electricity or running water. Water is available from a nearby creek but must be treated before use, and it is recommended that visitors bring their own water supply. A mooring buoy is available on a first-come, first-served basis but is not for the exclusive use of cabin guests. The area offers excellent saltwater fishing for halibut, rockfish, red snapper, and salmon, plus shrimping and crabbing opportunities. Sea kayaking is popular for exploring the area. Wildlife includes Sitka black-tailed deer, mountain goats, wolves, black and brown bears, as well as various waterfowl and marine mammals. Hunting is permitted in designated seasons with proper permits. Access is by floatplane or boat only, and visitors should consult tide charts before arrival and departure.
