Great weekend at the Yurt. Lots of extra cooking utensils and some supplies in the hut.

The forest service staff has really stepped it up! I took some supplies to the office beforehand to stock the yurt, and they took most of it up there. The smoke had nowhere to go but inside the yurt, even while adjusting the flues for airflow.
All in all, great place, great experience!

I love this yurt and have visited several times over the years. My last visit wasn’t good because the new wood stove leaked smoke inside, but hopefully will be fixed soon.

Great time, good Snow. Sunny in between the storms!
Broke trail in and out, luckily with good visibility . Some of the Trail markers, that were stakes in the ground, were buried under snow.
The Deck had 2-3' of snow at the door (which opens in) and snow covered over the railings of the deck. Found a small pile of split wood on deck after shovel clearing.
Had to dig 3' snow to get to top of main wood pile, after finding it with a probe. Decided to keep going and had 6-7' snow drifts to ground. Plenty of wood and plenty of snow burying it with no markers.
Plenty of people 'marking their territory' next to or on the deck.
No map of layout outside so ask support staff where the deck pile and main pile of wood is, outhouse is easy to spot at the backside of yurt. The little amount of information that's posted inside is helpful.
Mattresses were comfy, most yurts that we’ve been to the mattresses are thin and need to double up to not feel the rails, didn’t need that with the sturdy bunk beds of Limber Flag.
Received answers to all questions, great information, and help from rangers and other government staff when contacted.
Go with what the rangers/staff tell you is plowed for parking, unless you like to shovel out. Highly recommend 4X4 over AWD if a storm is in the forecast, helped others get unstuck.
Left it better than found it.

This yurt is an annual trip for our family and it is a great destination. We always go in winter and snowshoe into the area. Limber Flag mountain top is a great day hike. It’s three miles in and two of those are uphill and can be difficult in winter. Always allow enough time to get in before dark.
