About Sapphire Col Hut
Located high in Glacier National Park, the Sapphire Col Hut is a great midway bivy shelter on the Asulkan Ridge or base for climbing Mt. Swanzy in summer and for ski touring in winter. The hut is the smallest in the ACC network. Advanced technical mountaineering and glacier travel skills are required in all seasons. This facility is a mountain shelter with minimal supplies and users must be prepared to be fully self-sufficient.
