Emily Cabin is a hike in Oregon's Kalmiopsis Wilderness, part of the Wild Rivers Ranger District of the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forests. The Forest Service manages the land, and the trail is about 9 miles long, rising from a low of about 2,250 feet to a high of about 4,400 feet with a total gain of about 5,380 feet. The trip is an out-and-back, and the climb is rated hard. The route is a natural-surface trail. Horses are allowed, but bikes are not, and the trail is not accessible. The steepest stretch comes at about 4 miles in, where the grade reaches about 26 percent. The closest neighbors are Babyfoot Lake Rim, about a mile away, and Bailey Cabin and Babyfoot Lake, both within 2 miles. Paddlers can reach the Chetco River about 4 miles off, and Echo Beach Campground is about 7 miles away for an overnight base.
