As part of my project with the Chugach National Forest and Alaska Geographic, we decided we wanted to feature some of the public use cabins around Prince William Sound. These cabins offer fantastic access to wilderness areas and, as Chris points out, also serve as a safe shelter for anyone trapped out on the water by extreme weather conditions.

Pigot Bay holds the closest of these cabins to Whittier. After landing on the small beach below the cabin, a few hundred feet of trail lead across a wood bridge to its front door. From there you can keep close watch on your boat and the rest of the bay.
