That is correct. In the winter, snowshoeing would be the best option.

They are perfect for that! It’s kind of like backpacking, but you get a little more shelter from the elements. In our case, we woke up to snow flurries so it was nice to have a cabin with a stove in the morning (until we had to hike back down the mountain in it…)

I read a few hiking blogs that talk about staying in them and it sounds so cool! Especially since its usually way too windy to camp on/near the peaks of ranges.
