Backcountry Magazine October 2014 – Travel Guide

SUBSCRIBE | DOWNLOADBUY

Need a weekend to reset after a long workweek? Or is a weekend just not going to cut it? Our travel guide highlights 25 huts, yurts and lodges (and accounts of the accompanying terrain) for anyone’s schedule, ranging from a few days to a season.

Contributors from across the U.S. disclose their favorite weekend, weeklong, monthlong and seasonal trips, from weekends at Mt. Washington, N.H. to transcontinental snow travels. If that’s not enough, we expose 21 additional places to get out, get lost and rip turns—no matter the time constraint.

Then, Editor Tyler Cohen explores the Front Range’s newest and most accessible hut system. And the high-elevation yurts found in Utah’s Tushar Mountains showcase the thrills of escaping the Wasatch crowds without sacrificing terrain. Also, Jeremy Jones talks about his latest film, Higher, Ogden, Utah puts a twist on the Wasatch, and Biff has a question he’s been dying to ask.
