GRIZZLY DEN IS CLOSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE FOR RENOVATIONS

The Longworth Lookout was recently rebuilt in 2024. The project is nearly complete with only interior finishings and exterior sidding still remaining to do for the summer of 2025. The lookout, however, is ready for day and overnight use for the winter of 2024-2025. The cabin is sealed with doors and windows, is insulated, has a rough plywood interior, and most importantly has a wood stove and plenty of wood to stay warm.

Price and Reservation

This lookout operates under a “Section 57” authorization (different from our other cabins). As such, the cabin is reserveable and will be by donation for the time being. When you book the cabin, by default the suggested price is 100$ per night. Insert the coupon code LW-25, LW-50, LW-75 or LW-100 for 25%, 50%, 75% or 100% off the price. Yes, you are welcome to book it for free!

Avalanche Hazard

The trail and cabin are currently being mapped using the ATES mapping protocol. That product will be made available in 2025. For the time being, be aware that the lookout is surrounded by avalanche terrain. The terrain to the cabin is extremely hazardous. See attached photos.

Wind and Whitehout Hazard

This cabin is located on the top of a mountain and frequently experiences extreme wind conditions

Water

There are no creeks within ~1km of the cabin. In winter, snow can be melted on the woodstove (there are 2 large pots), in summer, you’ll need to pack in water or hike to go get some. There is a rudimentary rainwater collection system but do not count on that water, or consume it.

Why cabin fees?

100% of the funds are used directly for projects and there is absolutely no personal compensation for PGBRS volunteers from these collections. These funds are used to, for example:

  • Re-supply firewood
  • Make improvements to the cabins, leverage grants for large projects
  • Build structures: Wood sheds, etc.
  • Improve trails and crossings
  • Improve safety, signage, and access, etc.
