About Sevenfathom Bay Cabin
Overview
Sevenfathom Bay Cabin is located 22 miles southeast of Sitka, Alaska on Baranof Island. This cabin is generally available year-round, weather permitting, and was built in April 1991 by a group of local Sitka volunteers.
This is a remote site. The cabin can be accessed from Sitka via a 1.5-hour boat ride or a 15-minute floatplane ride. Visitors are responsible for their own travel arrangements and safety, and must bring their own amenities.
Recreation
Many hiking opportunities are available near the cabin, despite a lack of established trails. The South Baranof Wilderness Area can be accessed within five minutes by boat.
Saltwater fishing and deer hunting are popular activities as well. For information about fishing and hunting permits and seasons, visit the Alaska Department of Fish and Game website.
Facilities
The 16 by 16-ft wood A-frame cabin can accommodate up to eight people. A large deck extends across the front of the cabin. A sleeping loft accessed by vertical ladder, a wooden double bunk, table and benches, wood heating stove, cooking counter, broom, axe and maul are provided. An outhouse toilet is close to the cabin.
A mooring buoy for boat anchorage is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Cabin reservation does not include exclusive use of buoy. Mooring buoys are configured using a 4200-lb concrete block with 90 feet of 7/8th-inch stud link chain. Mariners are responsible for determining how suitable an anchoring system is for the size of their craft.
The cabin does not include mattresses or cooking utensils. Visitors should bring sleeping bags and pads, a cooking stove, pots, pans, plates, utensils, food, toilet paper, a lantern, garbage bags, a fire extinguisher and fire starter. Rain gear and boots are recommended. Firewood can be scarce.
Water is available from a nearby inlet stream but must be treated before using. It's recommended that visitors bring their own water.
