The yurt is a 27' diameter structure (mongolian style tent) that sits on a 30' x 33' foot deck. It is located approximately 1 kilometer (2/3 of mile) from
Frontier Point Nordic Lodge. A yurt user will be able to drive to within 300 yards of it during the non-snow seasons, but once Bogus Basin closes the road and begins grooming the Nordic trails the only mode of travel in will be by foot- either snowshoe or skiing!
Rental will include an outhouse (porta-potty style), firewood,
gray/waste water system, 2-burner propane cooking stove, table &
chairs, bunks and futon, dishes, utensils.
The yurt is primarily a "pack-it in / pack-it out" facility with guests bringing their own food, drinking water, sleeping bags, propane gas for the cooking stove and lanterns. Staying in a yurt is a bit of a "soft" winter camping experience - shelter with wood heat, no electricity, or running water - yet much more comfortable than tent camping on snow! It is an intermediate experience between the holiday inn style condo experience and tent camping.
The addition and installation of this yurt at Bogus Basin is made possible through a grant from the US Forest Service.
