In June 2026, Hayden Backcountry Lodge welcomed guests into the San Juan Mountains for a Summer Solstice gathering centered on movement, connection, nourishment, and time in nature.
Over three days at 11,100 feet, guests gathered for yoga, meditation, hiking, foraging, music, shared meals, and space to simply be. The weekend offered a glimpse of what becomes possible when people step away from everyday life and gather with intention in the mountains.
