Warming Huts
 

Tab One Content

There are warming huts located in just about every county in North Idaho. Warming huts provide shelter, warmth in the cold, a dry place in the rain, and are vital for Search & Rescue to have a central location. We encourage you to locate the warming huts in your area. The Coeur d'Alene Snowmobile Club has three 'Special Use' permits with the Idaho Panhandle National Forests for warming huts at strategic recreation locations throughout the Coeur d'Alene National Forest. These warming huts are available for all outdoor enthusiasts!  These huts are not maintained by the Forest Service. The amount of volunteer labor hours are immense, and business donations are priceless. Without them, these huts and trails would not be possible.  We ask you to RESPECT THE PROPERTY & REPORT ANY VANDALISM. The Coeur d'Alene Snowmobile Club maintains three warming huts for recreational users, and we encourage responsible use for over the snow vehicles while enjoying our public lands. Local area clubs & sometimes the park departments incur all the costs of maintenance with limited resources. Without resources, these huts may become obsolete and none of us want that outcome.
