Howdy. Thinking about checking out Pincher Creek Cabin by Kenai. Anyone have any info on how it is landing there? Super muddy and soft or okay? Thanks!

I go there regularly in the summers. Some times for the night some times for a walk in the grass. It is lovely.
There are two strips there's. They are both quite smooth and about 700-800+ feet long. They are both probably longer if needed as the ground out there is fairly smooth. There are some time downs at the cabin. I have never had it too soft when I have been there, but the grass and th silt would be very slick if wet. Maybe a little softer if wet, but nothing a set of 8.00-6 tires couldn't handle.
Watch out though, in July the flies out there are unbearable.
Great place for a night or a weekend.

The cabin is relatively new. It is owned by the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge and can be reserved on
www.recreation.gov.
