Ostrander offers an exceptional opportunity to experience this breathtaking winter landscape and enjoy a tranquil wilderness experience.
"I’ve been coming to Ostrander for five years and this area never fails to turn-on its ‘winter magic’. Powder is everywhere, people are nowhere and there are sweeping views of Clark Range from Buena Vista Peak. …I can usually smell the hut before I see it and once inside that chugging fire, the kettle on the stove and those warm smells of dinner cooking are the perfect welcome. My group also goes sledding by the moonlight and shares in the music and games that fill this granite hut in the evenings.”
-Lissie Kretsch. Frequent Ostrander Hut Guest and Fan

Discounted Youth Rates
As part of Yosemite Conservancy’s effort to encourage a new generation of visitors to the ski hut, it is offering a discounted rate to visitors under the age of 25.
Introducing youth to the wonders of the park not only makes for a great skiing vacation, but also sets the foundation for the next generation of caretakers who will go on to protect this magnificent place for future families to enjoy. The youth rate of $15.00 is available weekday nights (Mon-Thurs) only.
