"The Cascade Huts are the real deal. Comfy but small, the cabins offer light from lanterns, warmth from a propane heater, and sustenance from food you prepare yourself in the kitchen. They're two to four miles from the trailhead, ensuring that the only intrusion into your sweet, shared solitude will be the wind whispering through the trees. It's a perfect excuse to zip your sleeping bags together."

"I only paid for one night, so we pack slowly and ski out along the ridge enjoying sunny views of the White River valley and a gentle downhill slope toward home. Maren and Thomas stop to take a picture next to a heart-shaped waterfall. Mom says something about "next time we come to the hut."
"I ski behind the group, to make sure no one tries to turn around and go back."
