Backcountry Skiing Hut Trip
Pillows, glaciers, peaks oh my! Get off the grid and spend time traveling through a winter wonderland and sleeping in a cozy mountain hut. These trips are typically 1-week of backcountry skiing based out of one of the Rocky Mountains or Canada’s many high-mountain huts. Terrain ranges from fun tree skiing in Montana to complex glaciers and specific huts can be chosen to meet the desires of the group. Evenings in front of the fire with good food and friends are an exceptional part of this all-encompassing experience.
