Experience the dramatic seasonal transformations of the Blue Mountains, where scorching summer days can soar above 110 degrees Fahrenheit, inviting you to seek shade beneath towering conifers and plan your adventures for the cooler morning and evening hours. As winter blankets the landscape in pristine snow, the cabin becomes a remote sanctuary accessible only to those willing to traverse the white wilderness on skis, snowshoes, or snowmobile.
