Hiking from Hwy 75 next to Redfish Lake leads you to the winter oasis of Bench Hut. This hut can be rented out and sleeps up to 20 people. This route leads to the hut and then up the slopes to the west of the hut. The descent is fairly straightforward down a section of the ridge that has little to no trees. There are various descents down this ridge just above the hut. The ridge to the southwest of the hut can also be skied.
