Equipment Needed to Erect a 24' Yurt

[Bob Rowlands]

The cover on my 16'er was 17 oz /yd treated canvas, and very heavy and bulky, and that was just the top cover. The wall was a seperate piece. Anyway, I stood on a ladder in the ring hole and just muscled that sucker after I had it bunched up on the rafters, then got into the center hole in the cover while still on the ladder, and started it down the opposite side. Massive pain in the rear, and that was just a 16'er. This is yet another reason why I find the thought of a 50' yurt totally absurd.
