A great variety of people use the huts. Some groups use guides, others travel on their own with family and friends. Because the huts are used communally, please show respect for the people sharing the hut with your group. If you prefer a private trip, please reserve one of our smaller huts that sleep 6 guests, or reserve an entire hut. 10th Mountain works closely with not-for-profit groups, the young, and the elderly.

Staying in the huts affords a superb insight into the local way of life in the area you???re trekking through. Huts can vary immensely, but the ones I use on my treks all have reasonable facilities, and some are quite luxurious. They all have a minimum of running cold water, and often hot, many huts now providing showers. They all have proper flush toilets, usually of the sit down variety! We sleep either in dormitories or small rooms.

There are many mountain huts in and around the Chamonix Valley and Mont Blanc region that offer a resting place and sustinence for the weary traveller. A large proportion of them are closed in the winter although some may still offer shelter for back country tourers and climbers. The seasonal opening and closing dates is governed to a certain extent, by the severity of the winter and how quickly the snow disappears. Current season dates can be found on the Office de la Haute Montagne website.

There are eight Appalachian Mountain Club (AMC) huts located in New Hampshire?s White Mountains. Huts are owned and operated by the Appalachian Mountain Club, (www.outdoors.org), an organization committed to promoting the protection, enjoyment, and wise use of the mountains, rivers, and trails of the Northeast outdoors. Located in spectacular locations above treeline or near mountain lakes or waterfalls, the huts provide a unique backcountry adventure for novice and experienced hikers alike.

Yes, traveling to the huts on snowshoes is an option. If you are not a confident backcountry skier or are new to traveling with a pack in the winter, snowshoes could be a good choice. Travel by snowshoes can be slower and more tiring than skiing, especially in deep, untracked snow. If you are not an experienced skier, however, attempting to ski with a pack in similar conditions could be even more difficult, making snowshoes a more enjoyable and efficient option. The choice is up to you!

th Mountain strongly discourages the use of snowmobiles for access to the huts. The hut system was created for non-motorized travel and snowmobile use detracts from this unique experience. Most of the huts are located on U.S. Forest Service land, which is managed for a variety of recreational uses, including snowmobiling. Each hut, however, is surrounded by a USFS non-motorized envelope into which you cannot bring a snowmobile.

Most groups spend one or more nights at the same hut, though experienced groups can link multiple huts in one trip. Each hut in the system is accessible from its own trailhead or trailheads. While many of the routes to the huts are moderate in difficulty, most of the routes between the huts are longer and more difficult. In winter, a hut-to-hut trip can require very advanced navigation and route finding skills in addition to good skiing ability and physical strength.

A cellular phone can be extremely helpful in the event of an emergency but cannot be relied upon. Communication is available only on some segments of the trails and only at some of the huts. From our experience, reception can vary, depending on location and quality of the phone. We ask that you keep the phone in the bottom of your pack, and that you respect others by not using it inside the hut. Most people go to the huts to get away from phones!

None of the huts have hot tubs, but there are wood burning saunas at a few of the huts including Shrine Mountain Inn, Janet's Cabin, and Francie's Cabin. The sauna at Shrine Mountain Inn is located between and shared by Chuck's and Jay's Cabins, and is for the use of guest at all three Shrine Mountain Inn cabins. Due to a fire, there is no longer a sauna at Polar Star Inn.
