North America's largest No Fee Hut-to-Hut Trail System. Approximately 50 miles of trails, 20 miles groomed, three huts, and a yurt. Operated and managed by a Non-Profit Association in cooperation with our host landowners.
The trail system provides two huts and one yurt as
overnight accommodations. Other than a nominal
permit processing fee, there is no charge, as long as
you show up for your reservation and leave the huts
in good condition. The huts and yurt are
available for day trekers to use as a rest place and
lunch facility.
All facilities have propane heating stoves, sleeping pads, LED lights, a complete kitchen, tables, chairs, etc. All you need to bring is a sleeping bag, food, and emergency gear in case you need it on the way to or from the facility.
Reservations are on a first come, first served basis. They can be made in person at Whittaker Mountaineering in Ashford, or delivered to the MTTA office by mail or in person on winter season weekends.
