Hut Overview
We are working with Yestermorrow Design/Build School (another nonprofit) in Waitsfield, VT to build our first hut, and we’re already in the build phase! The hut is being constructed on Yestermorrow’s campus, where it will be stored through the winter before final transport and installation at its final destination in spring/summer 2018.
This year-round hut will sleep 10, and it will be capable of serving various outdoor enthusiasts, including hikers, mountain bikers, backcountry skiers, snowshoers, and more! Your generous contributions will be used to help us pay for our next invoice.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_empty_space height=”65px” image_repeat=”no-repeat”][vc_column_text]

Hut Location
As part of an Integrated Resource Project, the Chittenden Brook campground (located between Pittsfield and Rochester, VT) on GMNF land has been identified as viable zone for the hut. The specific location is under review by GMNF, with the final decision expected April 2018.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”70px” image_repeat=”no-repeat”][vc_column_text]

Our Vision
We have worked closely with our partners in recreation to identify potential hut zones to provide year-round connectivity and trailside accommodations for various outdoor sports. From hiking and mountain biking to backcountry skiing and snowshoeing, the map to your left represents a year’s worth of meetings and discussions to create the conceptual corridor between Killington and Stowe.
Every hut icon you see on the map is a new opportunity for outdoor recreation and greater statewide connectivity. While any new hut on state or federal lands will require a careful proposal and review process, this map is a huge step toward a cohesive hut network in the Green Mountains.
If you support our vision, we hope you’ll contribute to our first hut today by using the form above. Or, if you’d simply like to become a member, you can follow this link.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” text_align=”left” video=”” css_animation=”” box_shadow_on_row=”no”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”65px” image_repeat=”no-repeat”][vc_column_text]Please stay tuned for updates on this exciting project by subscribing to our newsletter.
