Summer
HUT-TO-HUT
WESTERN UINTA HUT SYSTEM
Fully supported and guided hut to hut experiences available this season!
Welcome to the First chapter of the Western Uinta Hut System—a new network of backcountry yurts designed to provide adventurers with unparalleled access to the beauty and rugged wilderness of Utah’s Uinta Mountains. Inspired Summit Adventures is excited to announce the second yurt in this growing system.
Castle Peak Yurt To Smith and Morehouse Yurt
Guided and Catered
NEW! For summer 2025 Inspired Summit Adventures is thrilled to share our new hut to hut guided and catered trips.
During this multi day trip you and your group will start at your choice of the Castle Peak Yurt or the NEW Smith and Morehouse yurt. There you will get a lay of the land, hike to the near by lakes, dfish, standup paddle board, or even try on rockclimbing! Half way through your trip you will leave your overnight gear behind for our team to transfer for you while you head deeper into the Uintas on a beautiful full day hike to the other yurt.
Your guide will lead you through trails and alpine lakes that rarely see human activity. These trails lead you through are a mix of alpine passes, old burt forests, and alpine meadows. There are a few different routes to chose from. The most direct route takes you 8 miles to the next yurt. Feeling strong? We have a 12 mile route that crosses 2 alpine passes.
After your full day of hiking, we arrive at the other yurt, as if by magic, find all of your personal belongings waiting for you. The only thing left for you to worry about is weather to take a cool dip in the lake or a relaxing steam in the sauna.
The buzz of the day, plus the magical transportation of your gear and the care in which our team has taken on this one of a kind traverse will leave you wondering if you just found paradise. But wait! You also just realized you get another day (or more) of adventuring an entirely new backcountry yurt!

Yurt? Isn't that some sort of tent from Mongolia????
Yes, technically a yurt is a portable, round tent covered in some sort of fabric or animal hide, and traditionally they have been used by nomadic cultures or groups in the steppes of Central Asia for shelter. But, here at Inspired Summit we believe a yurt is so much more. We believe a yurt is a gathering space for families and friends to share adventures, laughs and stories. We believe a yurt brings us closer to the ones we share it with, and to the environment in which it exists. We believe a yurt builds bonds, and memories that last a lifetime.
Inspired Summit Adventures is proud to be the owner and steward of The Western Uinta Hut System in the Uinta Mountains of Utah. We take this role seriously and aim to continue the legacy of the Castle Peak Yurt, and the yurt experience in the Uinta Mountains going strong for generations to come.
Inspired Summit Adventures operates on a Special Use Permit issued by the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest
