Yurt


Our family just went on a trip to the Lilly Lakes region of Utah to stay in a yurt.  This is an activity my husband enjoys doing with a few of our children.  He started doing it a few years ago.  I am usually able and willing to attend and participate in these outdoor activities.  The bad foot problems I've had lately have made it so I have not been able to enjoy the activities I have enjoyed in the past.

They usually cross-country ski in to the yurt. All of their gear and food are packed into a sled he pulls behind the skis.  Millcreek canyon has been their usual yurt destination.  This year it was very popular and they were unable to book that yurt.  So, we ended up going to the Bear River region.

It was fabulous!  My husband, Chuck rented a snowmobile so I could get to the yurt.  It is on the way to Mirror Lake in the Uintah mountains.  The weather was beautiful.  We had all of our children there except the Radmalls.  Great fun, great company, great hubby.
