Our "secret" little hut system offers the finest in winter back
country self-reliance. Ski or snowshoe with your friends or family
to any of the four yurts in our hut system.
We are proud to have been rated one of safest, most spectacular,
and most remote hut systems in The Colorado Hut to Hut Guide
by Brian Litz.
The Hinsdale Haute Route is Colorado's highest hut system,
located in the San Juan Mountains, along the Continental Divide
high above the friendly little town of Lake City.
Hinsdale Haute Route opened its first yurt in the winter of
1991-92, and since that time we have added three more yurts to
the system. Hinsdale Haute Route is a Colorado non-profit
organization, operated and maintained by volunteers. We operate
with the help of the Colorado Trail Foundation.
The Hinsdale Haute Route offers four yurts located high atop the
Continental Divide, generally following the La Gartia Stock Drive
trail. The system is generally safe from any major avalanches.
Most of the hut system is at or above the timberline, and offers
vistas of the Weminuche Wildernessto the southwest, five 14,000'
peaks to west and northwest, as well as views of the La Garita
Mountains to the east.
