FROG RIVER BC OUTPOST CABIN WILDERNESS ADVENTURE

Frog River

Our Frog river outpost cabin is located 90 air miles southwest of Muncho Lake high in the Cassiar Mountain right at the Continental Divide between the Pacific and Arctic Watersheds.

This high mountain valley is flanked to the north and south by spectacular mountain ridges and peaks. The elevation of the Frog river and its lakes is 3300 ft. A sandy beach in front of the cabin invites you to savor the long summer days.

The 7500 ft. high ridges to the north or south can be reached on daily wilderness hiking trips from your log cabin. The Frog river valley extends west into the Pitman river headwaters. The Pitman river feeds into the Stikine river which flows into the Pacific. For a very special hiking experience wander from the Arctic Watershed at Frog river in less then 2 hours to the uppermost Pitman Lake in the Pacific drainage!

Very few people know that there are some hotsprings on the Frog river. A day trip by canoe, a short portage around the rapids at the outlet of the lake and a 3 mile paddle on the lower Frog lake brings you to the lower outlet. Leave the canoe on the beach and hike for 1 hour downstream to the natural hotsprings.

Animals frequently observed are moose, caribou and mountain goat. Bald eagle nest in the valley and wait for careless Graylings to surface. This undisturbed Eco-system is a nature lovers paradise. Away from any sign of civilization you will be one with nature.

Outpost cabin equipment
Foam-Mattresses, cutlery, basic kitchen utensils with a 2 burner propane stove and a propane lantern are in the cabin for your daily life in the wilderness. A solar shower bag and an out-house complete the amenities for the simple, but functionally equipped Frog River cabin.

Boats and motors as well as a canoe are part of the cabins equipment and can be used by our guests to fish and explore the
Frog River.

For fishermen
Boats and motors as well as a canoe are available to explore the Frog river area and to access fly-fishing spots for Arctic Grayling, Dolly Varden (Bull Trout) and Lake Trout. This world class fly-fishing area is home to some of the largest Arctic Graylings known to bush-pilot Urs. If you are into fly- fishing the many streams, pools, inlets and rapids are classical fly-fishing waters. The diverse structure in the two narrow, but 6 miles long Frog river lakes hold many Lake Trout up to 20 lbs. Try trolling with a Crocodile type spoon or jig with mepps spinner.
