There are two cabins on Humpback lake. The images that appear on Google are of the privately owned 'Chalet' but the link takes you to the recreation.gov for the 'forest service' cabin. The location marked on Google Earth is for the 'forest service' cabin...the 'Chalet' is further East at the head of the lake.

I have been there 4 times and planning another trip in 2018. It is where you leave reality for a while and refresh your spirit in the back country.
