Hike, Bike or Ski? Hut to Hut American style

Join the authors of Hut to Hut USA: a Complete Guide for Hikers, Bikers, and Skiers and plan a hut trip! What is a hut, anyway? What is special about hut-to-hut travel? Where are the US opportunities to ski, hike, or bike through wild places, taking overnight shelter in comfortable huts? Laurel and Sam, a retired art curator and librarian, traveled almost 600 trail miles researching the book which presents sixteen hut systems from Alaska to New England, the west coast to the upper Midwest. They will engage the NHFS audience in imagining a few sample trips, share stories of their adventures, and invite broader musings on the future of huts.
