Here are the best directions to get there.
From Hwy 14, when you see the Sinclair Gas sign on the corner, go about 1/10 of a mile toward the fire department building. TR on Elk Creek Rd then go 4 miles until it "T"s. TL and go 9/10 of a mile. (The sign at the "T" says Erickson Ridge Rd., Most Maps have it as "American River Rd.") Look left for a cabin near the road that is called "Prospector Cabin". TL in the unmarked driveway 30' before that. Bear right at the "Y", the cabin is 500' in front of you.
Very nice newer cabin, Quite as advertised. Good internet and plenty of TV channels if you are stuck inside. A great remote getaway. Lot's of back roads to wander in the National Forest.
