Colorado Hut Trips

Colorado is lucky to have a few dozen mountain huts scattered around the backcountry. Typically sleeping 8-20 people, these "semi-rustic" huts range from having catered service to do it yourself kitchens. The last few days several friends and family members skied into Margy's Hut near Aspen. We did some fun ski touring finding lots of powder in gentle terrain. Communally, we packed in and cooked our meals. We enjoyed the sun rises, sun sets and stoking the wood stove for heat. Getting to the hut wasn't easy, but the laughter never stopped.

If you like the culture and vibe of A-Basin, there is a good chance you'd enjoy a hut trip. For more details check out 10th Mountain Division Huts.
