this place just listed for sale here, and is a fairly short small plane rcharter flight from here in anchorage; seems like a heck of a place for hunting and woods bumming in the fall and winter, comes with all the toys; i really need to get a coupla other guys to go in with this with me and snatch it up. [ not kidding either!]

Shucks, doesn't include the plane! Looks a little crowded for more than a couple.

i beleive there are extra cabins, though primitive. still it would be best for 3-4 most likely.

of course you could fly in a couple of cabin tents and leave them there for when they are needed; likely would be making spike camps away from main camp when hunting anyway. it sure does stir the imagination on a snowy sunday afternoon!

Crowded? 560 sq ft. You have half a condo.

Nice place, and compared to prices here not unbearable expensive.

I think the levergun forum should all pitch in and turn it into a time share for all of us

That seems pricey to me. A gut I work with just bought 80 acres for about 200K in the Wassila area.

For 180K I'd expect more than 10 acres in remote areas. having 10 acres would be nice but not at that cost, not for me.

OK, I must recant. I hadn't looked at the photos at the bottom (didn't see the links). With the cabins and all it's not too bad a deal. Is that ATV plywood or metal? Never seen one like that, is it homemade?

i dont know about the atv but will ask; if you figure up the cost of flyint things in via skyvan for example, you could easily have 100,000 in air freight [flews two atvs out to farewell burn coupla years ago and that cost 5200 for the round trip.

interesting isn't it?

there are two of the large atv's, Coots, a 4 wheeler, a 3 wheeler and 2 snow machines; caribou often come thru camp, lots of bears grizzly and black, fewer moose, lots of grouse and ptarmigan, some rabbits. sheep up the river, and the terrrain is not boggy, can travel 50 miles in some directions; no one else nearby;
talking to several about putting a group of buys and getting this.
will keep you posted.
maybe we will have a far north levergunners shooting meeting out there!

I can see the drawing for the week, now: "Ok, Griff gets the 2nd week in February!"

Fly in only, why that doesn't leave a good reason to justify the chains I bought for my dually about 20 years ago. (Only used on VERY few ocassions.)

Although with 52 weeks that only makes the cash price ~$3,461.54 each.

Wow,

Sure would be neat to be part of that! Love to be able to go all day and not run across another person!

it is neat; i have done that on fly in hunts, where i could hike up a mountain, take a spotting scope, and look all directions, all day, and not see a human or anything made by one. it is nice, but also a little eerie, especially in september when you know what the place will be like in a few months, and how it would be if the plane didn't come back and get you!
still it is a wonderful feeling at that.

A cabin with three 8x10 rooms sounds almost luxurious in a remote spot like that!

Wounder if I could qualify using my V.A. loan? They say I can go 400k

I was thinking the same thing. We did pretty good on the sword for Jeremy.

Not a bad idea

I was just checking my finances then the wife said she'd leave me (rather, she wouldn't go). That kinda kills it for me (but barely).

If I wasn't married I'd be closing this weekend.
