Yurt Under the Stars : Prints Available
A cozy backcountry yurt in the snow on a winter night in the San Juan Mountains, Colorado
Some friends of ours kindly offered us their backcountry yurt for the weekend, and we gladly accepted! Situated atop a hill above Red Mountain Pass and surrounded by heaps of intermediate ski terrain, the yurt provided a perfect base for two nights and three days of relaxing and skiing.

I apologize in advance for the cheese-factor of this photo, but I couldn’t resist showing how cozy it was in the yurt! After two nights like this, I’ll probably never want to winter camp in my tent again!
Sorry for what?? Everyone should camp like this!
Thanks for sharing the pictures.
That looks really nice. I had never heard of a yurt before, that’s cool!
This looks like my lifestyle! I almost bought a yurt from Groovyurts in Quebec because he gets his made in Mongolia – the original makers. Beautiful craftsmanship!
Thanks for sharing. Lovely pics!
Gorgeous, jack!
Jack,
I wouldn’t fret about the cheese factor, the yurt image is really beautiful! Great work on all of your images but that one caught my eye. Do you have much ongoing demand for images from your 4×5 camera? Regardless, keep up the great work.
Best,
Mike Putnam
Thanks Mike! Yes, I’m still selling my 4×5 images/prints! But the Canon setup is high enough res to allow for pretty large prints also, so I don’t miss shooting the 4×5 too much.
