Rob's dad has been going to some Yurts in the Uinta's above Evanston now for 4 or 5 years. This past summer, he invited us to go with them to help do some summer upkeep on one of the yurts. As a result, we were able to get a reservation to use this winter!! Rob and I headed out for the yurt Thursday night, and spent some time wandering in the woods trying to locate it!! Rob took off into the trees to see if the yurt was up on the ridge, and managed to get himself stuck pretty good!! I, luckily, did not follow and waited patiently for him to emerge from the woods!!! I got this picture as he came out.
We finally made it to the yurt and enjoyed a nice evening, just the two of us. I forgot to bring cards and games to play, but luckily we had my kindle and we had fun playing crossword puzzles all night. Here are a couple pictures of the yurt. There is a nice little "kitchen" area, and the next picture shows the bunks.
Friday morning, Rob and I enjoyed a nice little ride up to the top of the mountain. About noon, our friends Kye and Kelly joined us. We spent the afternoon snowmobiling and then a fun evening in the yurt.
We were lucky enough to have a full moon and enjoyed a nice little night hike before heading back to the yurt!
