General info

Kading Cabin is located in an area of the Helena-Lewis and Clark National Forest that was a part of the original Helena Forest Reserve established in 1906. Although the cabin is not located in an isolated setting, during the summer and fall, one can still escape the fast pace of the town. There is plenty of hiking, fishing, wildlife, and wildflower viewing to be had along the numerous trails and roads that can be accessed within a short distance from the cabin. For mining history buffs, there are plenty of historic mines, including the Charter Oak Mine/Mill and the Monarch Mine. 

During the winter months, the Little Blackfoot Road is only plowed as far as Hat Creek. Normally, a turn-around and parking area are provided. Approximately 7 miles of the unplowed road remain to reach the cabin. This section of road is closed to vehicles but open to those who like to ski, snowmobile, or use dog sleds.

The cabin has four beds with mattresses, a table, and four chairs, cabinets, drawers, a woodstove, and cookstove. A water spigot is located outside the cabin and operates most of the winter. Also available are gas lanterns, silverware, dishes, cooking utensils, pots and pans, firewood,
