As I dont have the yurt furnished yet inside since we just raised it yesterday I 'll give you photos of it going up

this yurt is 24 feet in diameter the clear dome at center is 12 feet five inches,  around 400 square feet of living space. I am going to heat it with a small box wood stove and eventually wire it so we can have a small refrigerator and micro wave. probably a  camp stove. A couple of cots , easy chairs and a space to hang  gear and clothes

good call on the bows one is indeed a Cascade Night hawk and the other is a Fox High Sierra recurve.  both are three piece take downs

The yurt was made in Colorado

Little big man - there is a DVD called "The Story of the Weeping Camel " - in which they show the inside of a yurt - you might enjoy some ideas from it.
 The DVD is one I bought for my sons and their families - because it is a spectacular DVD.
 It was shot and produced in Mongolia.

I stayed in a resort in VA that had yurts as one of their rental options.  They were luxury appointed inside with inside bath, kitchen, granite tops, king size bed and big flat screen tv.  You can make a yurt as bare or luxurious as you want.  Very nice.

Better than the Ritz.... :notworthy

[Pete Arthur]

That is fantastic! A friend of mine has property down there too. We are thinking of putting up a tipi at his place.
Really nice work! Good luck this season!

[Margly]

Very nice!

Do the roof rafters really rest-are supported by a small piece of cable/rope? Can't believe that would support much, if any sloppy, wet snow? Would think the rafters resting in the V on top of the side wall would be a lot more stronger than the cable/rope?

Otherwise a great looking camp.
