Gas station

Most people stopped here for gas at the Indian Cabins Trading Post, however, in early 2019, its tanks were no longer certified, resulting in the closure of the gas station.[2] With the closure of the Enterprise gas station a few weeks before,[3] there was a 335 km (208 mi) gap in gas stations on the Mackenzie Highway. However, a fuel system was introduced sometime in winter 2020 back to the Indian Cabins Trading Post.[4] Other than the gas station and convenience store, there are a few trailers in the community.

Indian Cabins was completely remade in Minecraft 1:1 scale by Oilerator, SireRobert, BigStew and MeatBagFrank.[5]
