SOS Outreach was founded in 1993 in Colorado's Vail Valley.  As a not-for-profit organization, they build character and self-esteem in youth through snowsports and SOS core values.  SOS will provide dynamic programming to 4,000 youth nationally during the 2008/2009 season.  San Juan Hut System has made a donation of more than 125 sleeping bags to SOS Outreach and Meet the Wilderness this season!  Would you like to help SOS Outreach serve youth?  Your donation in the form of time, gear, clothing or money can help SOS fulfill its mission.  Visit their website www.sosoutreach.org or talk to them at 970.926.9292.

San Juan Hut Systems has approached the USFS with a request for consideration of a Special Use Permit for a hiking hut route! The concept is to utilize 4 of our winter ski huts along the Sneffles Range that remain unused in the summer months.  This route as some of you may know connects Ouray, Colorado to Telluride, Colorado.  We are fielding your thoughts on this idea.  Please fsubmit your comments here or contact us via email, info@sanjuanhuts.com or give us a call!

Feedback from you will help make this a better system. Your comments will also help us show the forest service there is a need for a system like this.
