Hiking
The Sangree M. Froelicher Hut is a 10th Mountain Division backcountry ski hut. In the winter, the ski hut is approached both from the Sangree M. Froelicher Hut Parking Trailhead and Ski Cooper, but only the former is utilized in the dry season. Located at an elevation of 11,650 feet (just below treeline), this mountain resort of sorts serves as both a recreational and educational asset for the San Isabel National Forest ranger district.
