Just outside of Leadville lies the winter adventure you didn't know you needed.
The big picture: The Tennessee Pass Nordic Center in the San Isabel National Forest has more than 15 miles of beautiful cross-country trails, which alone are worth a visit.
Yes, but: Deep among those trails are also six reservable sleep yurts and a high-end Cookhouse restaurant that you need only to strap on your skis or snowshoes to experience.
How it works: The yurts sleep six people in three double beds. They contain a propane burner, potable water, a wood-burning stove and other necessities for a cozy night (like polar booties for your midnight walk to the outhouse).
Plus: You can also make lunch and dinner reservations at the nearby Cookhouse yurt. Lunch is more casual, but dinner is a prix-fixe affair.
What's next: If you can't squeeze the visit in this winter season (which ends in mid-April), the yurts and Cookhouse reopen for overnights and dinner during the summer season in June, too.
If you go: Pricing and reservation availability here.
