About
Towers Arm Cabin is a single-level hunter-style cabin situated on Kupreanof Island at the mouth of Towers Creek on the west side of Towers Arm in Duncan Canal. The terrain is relatively flat with 300-400 foot knolls behind the cabin and a vast tidal flat extending to the water's edge. The cabin accommodates up to four guests with four single wooden bunks, a wooden table and benches, and a wood stove for heating and cooking. The location offers excellent fishing in Towers Creek, with coho salmon available August through September and steelhead trout from April through May. The large tidal flat provides exceptional waterfowl viewing and hunting opportunities, with abundant waterfowl from September through November and shorebirds in early May. The area is also home to grouse, deer, wolves, and black bears. Visitors must bring all supplies including sleeping bags, cooking gear, food, and drinking water. Firewood is generally provided for the wood stove but is not guaranteed. All garbage and food must be packed out. The cabin receives minimal maintenance and visitors should report problems to the Petersburg Ranger District.
Directions
Access by boat or float plane only. From Petersburg, the cabin is 16 miles by float plane or 38 miles by boat. A 15-foot tide is required for boat access; a 16-foot tide is recommended for float plane access. Lower tides may require up to a 2-mile hike across the tidal flat to reach the cabin.
