About the Event
Our hut stay and hike
This will be another OMAZING overnight hike/yoga retreat with PeaksandPoses. We’ll be spending Saturday night above treeline at Madison Spring hut. This hut was the first AMC hut built dating back to 1888 but newly rebuilt. It greets its guests above treeline at the most northern point of the the Presidential range. The views are incredibly picturesque with views of several mountain ranges and incredible sunrises!!!!
Our hike up Valley Way or Airline trail is about 4 miles to the hut. Depending upon weather, we can drop most of our gear at the hut and continue .4 miles to summit Mount Madison elevation 5367'. On Sunday there is a possibility to hike Mount Adams 5774' before we hike back to our cars.
Here's a link to the hut.

What will our day be like?
We'll meet at the Appalachia Trailhead parking on Route 2. We'll stop along the way to take in the views strike some poses and of course snap photos. We'll arrive at Madison Spring hut to unpack and hopefully continue a short distance (.4 miles) to summit Mount Madison. Back at the hut, there is a common area to chill, read, do yoga or venture outside to walk around the area. Madison Spring Hut offers co-ed bunkrooms and separate washrooms with toilets. Bunkhouses are not heated and have no lighting. Electrical outlets are not available. You must have a headlamp with extra batteries. Our stay above treeline will be an extraordinary experience. On Sunday there is a good possibility of hiking Mount Adams which is 1.0 miles from Madison hut.
Knock another overnight hut stay or another 4000footer or something extraordinary off of your bucket list and register today.
