Need to Know
- Alaska cabin reservations can only be changed once. If you need to modify your reservation a second time,it must be cancelled and then re-booked by calling 1-877-444-6777.*Effective November 17, 2003 to assure fairness for everyone.*
- Rock used in the construction of the nearby Coffman Cove Road has been found to contain sulfides that cause low pH (acidic) and elevated metals concentrations in the water. One of the metals that is leached from the rock is iron, which is causing the water in the streams to become red-orange. Small pieces of iron compounds can be seen suspended in the water. Laboratory analysis of the water samples taken have not shown any threats to human health, but the analysis was not done in a comprehensive manner normally performed for drinking water. The Forest Service suggests that you not use the water from these streams for drinking water. The Forest Service in cooperation with the Environmental Protection Agency, the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation, the Federal Highway Administration and others are working to address the problems cause by the rock and low pH and metals in the water.
