Green-Wilson

Green-Wilson 11,300’

The Green-Wilson hut sleeps 8 and is located near Castle Peak 50 yards uphill from the neighboring Tagert Hut.

The Green-Wilson Hut was built 1978 and it is named in honor of Lu Lynn Green Wilson. She was a Laboratory Technologist who managed the Aspen Valley Hospital laboratory her untimely death from cancer. Her husband Dr. Wilson donated the hut in her memory. The Green Wilson had minor repairs in 1999. In a big snow year the whole hut often completely buried by snow!

Both Green-Wilson and the neighboring Tagert are cozy shelters beneath Pearl Basin, Mace Peak, and the East Face of Castle Peak (14,272’).

This hut is part of the Alfred Braun Hut System, a community supported 501c3 non-profit which independently owns and operates seven huts: Barnard, Goodwin Greene, Markley, Lindley, Tagert, Green Wilson, and Opa Taylor. We contract our bookings through the Tenth Mountain Division Hut Association. Click below to be redirected to huts.org to plan and book a trip.
