At a elevation of 13,000 feet this unique mountain resort usually opens in mid April and closes down for the winter. During the summer seasons temperatures usually waver anywhere between 70-90 degrees with a water temperature of 80.

Apgar Woods Campgrounds

Located at the north end of the lake this remote campground sits on bluffs above Lake Noxmorra.


History

During 881 BE exploration because popular throughout the nations, especially into terrain that was considered difficult to traverse. Found by a unknown explorer in 883 BE Illiamna resort was considered one of the nations jewels due to the high mountain hot water spring and coral reefs that inhibit it's lake. In 882 construction of the railway and the train station began to allow for supplies to be brought up easier than the treacherous cliff paths, however construction was not completed until 892 due to negative temperatures and massive snow fall. Construction started for the main building in 982 and was completed in 990.
