About
Kaats'Heeni Yanshuka, also known as Nine Mile Campground, is a small first-come, first-served camping area located along the scenic Situk River in the Yakutat Ranger District of Tongass National Forest. Situated about 9 miles from the town of Yakutat along Forest Highway 10 (Dangerous River Road), the campground offers a rustic wilderness experience with six tent platforms. The site is particularly popular with anglers who come to fish the Situk River, especially during the spring steelhead run. The campground provides river access and opportunities for both motorized and non-motorized boating, making it a strategic base for fishing enthusiasts. The surrounding area is bear country, and visitors should practice proper food storage and maintain a clean camp to minimize bear-human conflicts. As a primitive campground in a remote location, facilities are minimal. The site is free to use and operates on a first-come, first-served basis year-round, though access may be limited during winter months depending on road conditions. Campers should come prepared with all necessary supplies, including drinking water, and be ready to pack out all trash.
Directions
Drive 9 miles from Yakutat on Forest Highway 10 (Dangerous River Road). Just before the Situk River bridge, turn right into the campground.
