...prepared for bed during an overnight stay with her boyfriend's family in Yonkers, N.Y., last week, Diane Elsroth, 23, complained of feeling ill. Her solicitous companion, Michael Notarnicola, also 23, brought her two capsules of Extra-Strength Tylenol from what he said was a previously unopened bottle purchased a week earlier by his mother.

Accommodations range from the rustic to the comfortable, complete with cocktails and elaborate meals. Though hut-to-hut skiing can be found throughout the northern U.S., it is most popular in the West. "The huts are really in vogue," says Dick Jackson, head of a ski-tour company in Aspen, Colo...
