“Since the yurts—comfortable Mongolian-style huts that sleep 11, with skylights, high ceilings, and wide-berth bunks—are a full day ski in, snowmobiles (or snow cat) are the desired transport. You can haul all your gear, coolers of great food, and après ski beverages on sleds instead of your back, allowing more time and energy for hiking and skiing up and down the gorgeous glades, bowls, burned timber stands and chutes that define the dramatic area.”  

  Excerpt from Buddy Levy’s article ‘Idaho’s Andes’
