Hunting Equipment
The lodge sits at an elevation of 7600 feet, at the western edge of the Flat Tops Wilderness. Our weather can vary greatly in the fall, so you should be prepared for a variety of weather conditions. By early September frost is common, and snow can occur at the higher elevations any time from mid September. A properly outfitted hunter will be prepared for rain, snow, and sun. The sun is quite strong at this elevation, and can burn skin easily, even on cloudy days.
