matt and jon melting snow on the wood burning stove in a huge pot so we could have water. behind that are 4 twin beds against the windows we used for lounging! in front of the girl taking the pic (miranda) are stairs leading down to the basement full of wood for burning.
mirands and anastasia upstairs on the beds we slept in. there were three in front of me, and i was sitting on another bank of three. there were also 2 rooms with 2 double beds in them. 
christopher and erica at the table we ate many a good meal at (and made up more verses to the diarrhea song) (when you're sliding down a hill and you feel the need to dil diarrhea diarrhea)
the view from the hut
that really low cloud is not a cloud, it's snow!!!! suckkkaaa!
erica brought in eggs for us to dye! this was a fancy hut to hut trip!
liz and emilyat the false summit (we had about 200 feet to go). we snowshoed up this on the second day (after staying the first night in the hut). We were beat man. You can't see my feet/snowshoes b/c we had to make the trail right there.

liz and erica trekking up the hill. erica was pulling a sled with 4 liters of wine and 12 hard boiled eggs :). It was amazing. Woo woo for Colorado. It took us 5.5 hours to get up and 2 hours to get down. The first thing we did after was stop and get french fries and milk shakes :).
