1st Annual Yurt Trip

Aly.. Sorry these Yurt trip pictures have taken so long.. Here we are getting geared up for the trek to our first Yurt in the Uintas. The snow was coming down hard but we were prepared and it was so beautiful and peaceful.


Of course the snow wasn't so good for Pancho's long hairs. He would form these big snow balls on his undercarriage...he he.




And eventually would end up in someone's coat to stay warm.
The first yurt that we stayed at was called Bear Claw. It was super cozy thanks to the wood burning stove.
Our many nalgenes that kept us nice and hydrated.. We would melt snow and then filter the snow into our bottles..

Our yurt..like in Mongolia..sort of..

Sadie and Pancho did pretty good together.. they had their little spot in the yurt. This is us all together on our last day. We tried tying Pancho to one of the sleds but it didn't last. Alas he had big snow balls stuck to him when we got back to the car. Later my friend said that spraying some Pam to his hairs would help to keep the snow from sticking.. next year..
