Apparently there is a public-use cabin located near this airstrip:
Cabin location: N62.192154, W144.866446
Refer to USGS maps Gulkana 1:250,000; Gulkana 1:63,360 (A- 2)
Chelle Lake Cabin is 24 feet by 36 feet in size and contains four standard twin- size wooden bunks, a kitchen area, a table with bench, a woodstove, fire extinguisher, informational bulletin board, and a pit toilet.
This cabin is available to everyone on a first- come, first- served basis. Maximum stay limit is 14 days. This cabin is located on the east shore of Chelle Lake in a mixed spruce forest on the west slope of Mt. Drum at an elevation of about 3,200' and is accessed by aircraft via an extremely rough 800' gravel airstrip. Water may be obtained from Chelle Lake, but must be treated and allowed to settle.
The cabin location permits off- trail hiking/exploring in the direction of Mount Drum and fishing in Chelle Lake. There are numerous bugs; head nets are strongly encouraged during June, July, and August. Obtain firewood from dead and down wood. This location is a 20 acre site surrounded by private lands. Avoid trespassing on private property.
