The yurt was made by GoYurt. Thanks, Howie, for the excellent job!
setup
We hauled in all these parts and more, carved steps up the hillside, and Mark chainsawed down a small tree.
As the yurt went up, Anna mostly sat and watched. (Not!)
Some views of the construction.
2009 update
After it had been up a year, I took some more photos..
And some views of the interior.
Yes, it has power and internet now.
Ethernet only goes so far, so there's a repeater in the woods enclosed in tupperware.
furniture
In 2009, I added a small stove, which is a huge improvement. And in 2010, a custom, self-leveling bed.
2012 teardown
In 2012, the yurt was taken down, as the roof needs repairs, and in order to maximise the lifetime of the rest. Only the canvas of the roof is in bad repair; the walls have stood up remarkably well to 4.5 years in a wet environment.
