Escape the distractions of modernism and nourish your soul with tranquility. See first hand how locally collected reclaimed and natural materials can provide low impact and interesting shelter. Enrich your knowledge of an area strong in natural phenomena and early human activity. Rent an Earthen Exposure ski hut.

Small group parties or romantic getaway, this hut is tucked away on private property little more than a stone's throw from the groomed trails of the Craters of the Moon National Monument and Preserve. Tour the monument by day, then snowshoe/ski to the hut that afternoon for a night of solitude in rustic charm. With no elevation gain and a short 1.7-mile jaunt on the historic Goodale's Cutoff, access is possible for a wide variety of enthusiasts.

Situated between the base of the Pioneer Mountains and Great Rift, views are afforded in every direction. Three sides are framed by the Pioneers; the forth is an open vista to ancient volcanic cones.

Amenities provided (for up to eight people):

  • bunk beds with foam mattresses
  • dining table & benches
  • basic cookware, mugs, cups & eating utensils
  • wood stove & firewood for heat
  • propane two-burner cooking stove
  • propane lanterns
  • enclosed outhouse with toilet paper

Guests only need to bring:

  • sleeping bag
  • food
  • clothes
  • personals
  • first aid kit

Additional opportunities, right outside the hut door, include novice to intermediate skiing and snowboarding; sledding/tubing; and snowshoeing. The experience can be topped off with a hotspring soak on your way home, just 10 miles down the road.
