thousands of acres of back country for skiing, hunting and exploration.
Depending on the season, guests may also choose to enjoy the extensive system
of quality mountain bike, horse and hiking trails that connect with the cabin.  
  
  
  
The cabin is not accessible by vehicle and the area around the cabin is closed
to all forms of motorized use. The winter route begins at the Kettle Crest
Trailhead on Sherman Pass (State Highway 20) and has a one-way distance of
approximately five miles for skiers and snowshoers. Winter visitors are
advised to carry snow chains and a shovel in their vehicle as winter storms
and icy conditions can make it difficult to exit the trailhead, even after it
has been plowed. Hikers, bikers and horseback riders can access the cabin in
the summer and fall from the Snow Peak Trailhead via the 3-mile Snow Peak
Trail. Guests are responsible for their own travel arrangements and safety,
and must bring several of their own amenities.

## Recreation

In addition to camping, visitors to the area enjoy hiking, mountain biking and
horseback riding on a variety of trails in the area. The Snow Peak Trail No.
10, Kettle Crest South Trail No. 13, Sherman Loop Trail No. 72 and Edds
Mountain Trail No. 3 can all be accessed from the cabin. Climbing, snowshoeing
and skiing in the area are also popular.  
  
Visitors also enjoy the area for hunting during open seasons, as the open
mountain meadows throughout the area entice a variety of wildlife. The cabin
is in a remote location and guests are advised to carry a topographic map of
the area and a compass when leaving the cabin at any time.

## Facilities

The one-room 17-by-19 cabin has cots and foam pads to accommodate up to four
people. It is also equipped with a propane cook stove, a table, basic cookware
and cutlery, and a wood stove for heat. Solar-powered lighting and an outhouse
are provided. Horse corrals are also available for equestrian campers and a
spring fed water trough is located near the cabin along the Kettle Crest 13
South trail.  
  
Firewood is provided, but guests must split their own wood with an axe and
tools that are provided. Firewood must be flown into the cabin by helicopter
every two or three years, which is very expensive. Guests are asked to use the
firewood conservatively while heating the cabin. Given the size of the cabin
and the efficiency of the wood stove, a little wood can go a long ways. In
addition, firewood provided at the cabin is not to be used in any user created
outdoor fire rings.  
  
Guests must bring their own water for drinking, cooking and cleaning purposes.
Sleeping bags, toilet paper, garbage bags and food are also not provided. Cell
phone service is not available in the area.

## Natural Features

The cabin sits at an elevation of 6,400 feet, on a ridge in the Kettle River
Mountain Range in the Colville National Forest. It was built through the
cooperative efforts of the Snow Peak Shelter Alliance and the Colville
National Forest. Construction took nearly three years and was completed in
1995. Views from the cabin stretch from the Cascades to the mountains of
Canada and northern Idaho. The Kettle Range encompasses an area of 2,700
miles. The range runs north to south, bordered on the east by the Kettle River
and the Columbia River, and on the west by the Kettle River, the Curlew Valley
and the Sanpoil River. Wildlife in the area include hawks, bear and cougars.

## Nearby Attractions

Colvilla National Forest

The Little Pend Oreille, pronounced "ponderay," National Wildlife Refuge is
located in northeastern Washington about 70 miles north of Spokane, 40 miles
west from the panhandle of Idaho, and 40 miles south of British Columbia,
Canada. Our 42,657 acres are within the Columbia River Basin Ecosystem and the
Okanogan Highlands Province. The Refuge is on the western edge of the Sekirk
Mountains; elevations range from 1,800 feet to 5,600 feet. Other public lands
surround us- to the north the Washington Department of Natural Resources; to
the east and south the U.S. Forest Service are the land stewards.

  
The Refuge was established on May 2, 1939 to protect and provide a breeding
ground for migratory birds and other wildlife. Most of the land was acquired
through the Resettlement Administration which retired marginal farmland. Other
land was purchased from willing sellers or acquired through exchange with the
Washington Department of Natural Resources.
