High up in rugged drainages above Aspen, in places like Castle Creek, Hunter Creek, Woody Creek and the Fryingpan, is a network of backcountry huts available for rent throughout the ski season from the 10th Mountain and Braun hut associations.
Now, we're not talking about some decrepit plywood shacks here. No, some of the local huts' outhouses are so charming, in fact, that they have been featured in prominent publications. Some huts are comparatively easy to get to and sleep 16, and others are decidedly harder and sleep six; some approach routes skirt avalanche terrain, while others drive directly through it.
So, if you want to get away from the commotion of life; wake up to a wood-burning fire & then ski tour all day long in a beautiful backcountry setting; then come home to après ski in your own historic hut...
You can choose from several tiers – from fully catered start to finish with gear included, or simply book the guide itself. Single night to multi-day - multi-hut trips available. Hut trips are fully customizable and options exist for multi-day outings and adventurous hut-to-hut traverses as well. Huts fill fast so book quickly!
