Add this trip to your bucket list!
My partner and I took my mom on a 2-night / 2-hut skiing trip here as a gift. She loved it and says, "If I had a bucket list, this would have been on it!" We skied into Poplar Hut on Friday afternoon, then enjoyed an evening of relaxation, games, great beer, good company, and DELICIOUS food. The ski downhill from Poplar towards Stratton Brook was a little daunting, so we hiked down the first part of the snowshoe trail (past the awesomely frozen waterfall!) then had a beautiful ski along the flatter snowshoe trail. This was our favorite part of the trip! We then skied to Stratton Brook hut (hiking the very steep last half mile or so) and had yet another amazing meal made by more amazing hut staff. In the morning we took a short hike down the very steep part of the trail, then had a beautiful and gently downhill ski back to the Airport Trailhead. We’d love to come back!
