First viewpoint from our hike. Jacques Cartier river below.

The Sautauriski River. The cabin/refuge/hut is to the right, you can see the peaked roof.

Loft area with beds. Very comfortable.

Candle glow at the end of the day.

The kitchen counter

Good thing we brought the kitchen sink for holding snow. @toesalad is already in his booties. Time to start melting snow for water.

Not exactly roughing it! Our “hut” is a brand new cabin with wood burning stove, electric heater (!) and camp beds. Very comfortable accommodations. The park made sure to warn us about the lack of amenities at this site: no lights or running water or cooking pots etc.

This is the most deluxe “lack of amenities” we’ve ever had!

The fire was already going when we arrived. Sautauriski refuge is a warming hut during the day for park users.

Taking the snowshoe trail through the hors piste ski terrain en route to our cabin.

My food for 3 days, plus one supper.

I overpacked. Didn’t need so much day time food.
