Hut-Hut Skinner to Uncle Bud's

  • Tue, Jan 14, 2025 — Fri, Jan 17, 2025
  • Boulder
  • Backcountry Skiing/Splitboarding
  • Adults
  • Difficult
  • Difficult
  • Mileage: 12.0 mi
  • Elevation Gain: 1,700 ft

We will overnight in Leadville on the 14th.  Ski to Skinner on 15th - 11m, 2,700' - If you plan on Nordic skis, and have the skills for these in these conditions, I will recommend also bringing snowshoes for portions of Glacier Creek.  On the 16th we will ski to Uncle Bud's - 6.3m, 1,600' - and this route is less frequently traveled, so assume trail finding and trail breaking.

The ski out of Bud's on the 17th is a simple joy, so will most likely stay late in the hut, explore the area and plan to arrive at car(s) by 4ish and drive back.

Interested parties should have hut-hut experience.  Contact me to schedule a call to discuss.

I will remove any who register before we have spoken. Thank you for understanding. 

We will carpool to Leadville on the 14th and overnight there.  Details to be sent to registered team.
