Jeff DeFreest submitted this photo and note: “The ice was reportedly off of Big Goat Lake, high in the Misty Fiords Wilderness in Alaska — well, off the half of Big Goat nearest the old US Forest Service Cabin anyway. I flew the 1952 Cessna 170B on PK-2300s about two hours south from Juneau for a solo camping and fishing trip with a pot of chili, one bottle of Alaskan ESB, and a cigar! It was a great early season adventure in mid June 2009. Sadly the Forest Service removed this cabin a few years later due to lack of use and deferred maintenance costs.”
