I attend a gathering in Central Oregon every early spring at 4000 feet. The road in is usually not passable for a camping trailer, so, tents are the next best thing. There are usually several tipi's, but the poles are problem transporting. One lone yurt comes, and that made my decision to research yurts. I have been aware of yurts since the sixties, but the early ones I saw were not really suited to camping. The traditional Mongolian Ger is, and that is what I have built. It goes up in an hour working alone, and comes down as fast, although help is much appreciated. Not having a source of heavy felt for the , I sewed several layers of disaster blankets together. The disaster blankets are a felted mixture of synthetic material, and wool.
