Other Things to Note:
+ The cabin is at 8,000 ft elevation; please prepare for possible snow from mid-October to May.
+ Please note we do not stock firewood. Consider picking up a bundle or two if you'd like to use the stove during your stay.
+ The last quarter mile of the road is gravel and may develop minor ruts. While a good AWD/4WD vehicle is recommended, it is not necessary unless it snows. The final portion of the drive is narrow with limited space to turn around, which may require backing up from the driveway on your way out. Please use caution to ensure your vehicle stays safely on the road, as there is a steep cliffside.
+ Start hydrating well a few days before you travel, it helps with the altitude adjustment.
+ In the summer months, each of the three bedrooms will be equipped with very quiet Midea window AC units to ensure your comfort. The main living area and loft can be quickly cooled by opening windows and patio doors, and turning on the fans.
+ Cell reception may be limited; WiFi is available with a very strong connection through Starlink but can experience very occasional outages.
+ The cabin is two stories with a loft. Please be prepared to navigate indoor and exterior stairs during your stay.
