The Fawn Lakes yurt is the highest and most remote of all our yurts.
Located high in a cirque at the head of Ruby Creek, this yurt offers some
of the Hinsdale Haute Route's best back country skiing.
The terrain varies from gladed trees to a pristine corniced basin. Fawn
Lakes is truly one of the finest huts in Colorado.
