lol "lightweight" Ya as compared to logs I guess, not really something you can throw on your back with everything else is it. Like the rounded style its like a frontier canvas tent that I love so much.

Who is making them sounds in the back ground.I do that myself.Cut it out.I know I need to stop that too.YURT. I have to remember this word.Where did you get your Yurt?
is that thing bear resistant or what if a tree falls on top of it during a storm?what are the advantages of this one over a cabin aside from being harder to construct?thanks
No orthodoxy is pure. "Atheists" congregate, follow charismatic authors/orators {a.k.a. preachers} and worship Darwin, because "atheists" are people and that's what people do. Humans are inherently social, philosophical, contradictory Beings. "Atheists" staunchly defend their secular faith against heretics, as do all religionists.
oh, don't take it too personally, there Speck. Just checkin all the comments now. I appreciate your earlier comments, but do not appreciate being called a dick. Have some patience and don't expect people to always know and go with your flow.
I have Question Captain How does this shelter hold up to a hungry Grizzly bear?Have you had any encounters with them?Very nice Digs though.Much respect and Peace be with you.
a Grizzly Bear can tear the walls or door off virtually any shelter, but they don't. There are no such things as accidents and there have been only 100 deaths in the last 100 years from bears in Alaska. Whereas there is a death every second in a car crash in America alone.
can you just set up any where or the price of land im an ignorant eastener live in the mountains but all tourists white mountains ya know very popular with city folk used to be nice years ago lived off the land but the days are numbered for peace and quiet round here love those sea gulls cant get near the ocean to crowded here thanks you should be proud of what youve done bang up job
Yes, you are an ignorant Easterner. But that is okay, that is what education is for. There is land everywhere for those willing to explore, serve or work the land, to live and play in a holistic way. Everyone else has to pay rent or a mortgage. "The only reason people have to work for money is because they are disconnected from Nature." -native saying
Poor clueless Alaskans just had their first New World Order interagency crime sweep called Operation Gangbusters, and most think it's mission will be to contain criminals. Little do they know that this is an operation of the illuminati; and will eventually be used to contain not criminals but dissident Americans who will reject the fascist corporatist government.
Nobody really owns the land. They are just temporary stewards upon it. This particular land is part of a state park system- free for all to explore and discover, camp on, etc.
@DavidLakota well in co that thing would have to be up and then gone in 14 days, if they even allow the structure as they told me just tents and rv's are allowed. Not sure if they allow camping everywhere on land as they do have sites they charge for. Too many rules in society for me
There's no problem keeping cool in Alaska summers unless you are way up north. Even there it is cool at night. This particular cabin is sheltered from both excessive heat and cold.
It was the woodstove. Even the most expensive, well insulate shelter will be really cold in the winter without an adequate heat source.
From my experience, with a moderately good stove, this yurt heats up quickly and stay plenty warm. The challenge is actually keeping the stove from making the place too warm. Almost always I leave the window open with a good wood stove.
what keeps a grizzly bear from just coming in and having you for lunch?. or have you thought about it? if not , maybe you might consider getting a large side arm like a colt 45. or smith and wesson 357 magnum. i am serious, a bear would have no problem ripping thru that material. something to think about!
A Grizzly or Brown Bear can tear through just about anything. I saw a small black bear take the door off a car nonchalantly. The key is not to piss them off. And there are no such things as accidents. I have lived among the bears for more than 20 years. Yurts are great because they go up in a weekend, they're in-expensive and have lots of room. By the way once you shoot a bear or even at one, it's a lot harder to walk in bear country especially at night. Gotta think ahead grasshopper.
@DavidLakota Hey I love your perspective. Where I live in the city I put out food for the animals and one raccoon who used to frequent our garbage can never touched it again. It takes very little, a few bites of my meal to keep everyone happy. :)
You can buy a Yurt from between 4,000 and 10,000+ depending upon size and insulation kit, windows, shipping etc. then there is the posts and the decking.

What is the Duro-last made from?
rosterchange 2 years ago
The NYT article on this Yurt was interesting, especially about the Duro-Last covering.
Yet in the article, the couple cited that the Yurt was unable to maintain a comfortable warm temperature in Alaska.
Is this due to an insufficient insulation in the floor and coverings, esp. the vinyl windows?
Is this due to the small inefficient wood stove?
Thoughts?
