Hiking
The trail comes to an end at the Dan Moller public use cabin, situated in an alpine cirque that offers beautiful views across the water and plenty of wildflowers in spring and summer.
Some hikers continue hiking off-trail to the ridge above the cirque, where you can enjoy views of Stephens Passage and Admiralty Island. Admiralty Island is home to the highest concentration of brown bears in the world, making it enormously popular for guided tours.
One note about the Dan Moller public use cabin: You must have prior reservations to use it. It can be reserved through recreation.gov. recreation.gov/camping/campgrounds/232941

Running
The Dan Moller public use cabin, situated in a pretty alpine cirque, makes a logical turnaround point for your run. Hikers sometimes continue off-trail to gain the ridge above you, but that's really not runnable terrain.
