The Section House is on top of Boreas Pass at an elevation
of 11,488 ft. We had a little bit of trouble after getting used to the
sun-drenched beaches of Hawaii in putting on large backpacks and hiking in
snow for 6 miles at high altitude but the views were worth it. We spent a lot
of time playing "Hand and Foot"(a card game) and stoking the wood stove to
avoid having to go out in the cold.
