We currently have 10 out camps which are either log cabins or wall tents and are anywhere from 1.5 miles to 30 miles away from the lodge. All of our out camps are complete with plywood floors, plywood bunks that have 4" foam pads on them, dinner table with chairs, counter and cook space with either a coleman stove or 4 burner propane stove, and a wood burning stove to warm up and dry things off. Most of our camps also have 1000 watt generators to recharge batteries, showers, meat racks, and a .22/.410 varmint gun. These are some of the nicest hunting accommodations in Alaska as 80% of guides use "please-don't-rain" tents. Some of the camps also have fishing tackle for the lakes that have good fishing. We are always trying to improve our camps but I think you'll find the uniqueness of these remote Alaskan camps quite charming.
