About this home
Some people dream of convenience; others dream of silence. Nestled in the spectacular El Capitan area near the northern end of Prince of Wales Island, this beautifully secluded 3.67-acre property offers a peaceful, remote setting with potential views over Devil Fish Bay & El Cap Passage. Currently accessible by foot, it could become your fishing retreat, hunting camp or off-grid wilderness escape. If you're searching for true wilderness, the El Capitan area is hard to beat. Tucked away near the northern end of Prince of Wales Island, this remarkable region feels untouched by time. Gravel roads wind through old-growth forest to hidden lakes, rivers and spectacular coastline, while nearby attractions such as the Karst Trail and El Cap Caves showcase some of Southeast Alaska's most fascinating landscapes. With no stores, limited services and no cell coverage, it's a place to disconnect from the modern world and reconnect with nature.
This property is best suited to someone who genuinely enjoys the outdoors and embraces an off-grid lifestyle. Whether you're dreaming of a hunting camp, a fishing retreat, a wilderness basecamp or simply a private escape, you'll appreciate the peace and solitude this location provides. Whale Pass, the nearest community, is approximately X minutes away via gravel roads, while the rest of the island feels pleasantly far removed.
Access is currently by foot. Park at the roadside pullout, follow a short uphill section, then continue approximately 900 feet along a rough blazed trail to the property. Once there, you'll find yourself surrounded by quiet forest with little sign of civilization. Bordering state land, the lot enjoys an added sense of openness, with a mostly treeless area alongside that creates a surprisingly spacious feel.
The property sits on what feels like a gently elevated plateau, sheltered by surrounding hillsides while sloping toward Devil Fish Bay and El Cap Passage. With selective clearing, there appears to be excellent potential to open up attractive water views, as shown in the included drone photographs.
This is not a turnkey property, and that's exactly what makes it special. Building materials would currently need to be carried in by hand, or future owners may choose to establish an ATV trail if permitted and practical. For the right buyer--someone with imagination, self-reliance and a genuine love of the wilderness--this is an opportunity to own a rare piece of Alaska where silence, solitude and adventure still exist....
