It's a long time since we were staying in a yurt in Mongolia but since we became the proud owners of a genuine 'ger' (yurt is the Russian name) and put it up in Norfolk (five long sweaty hours of erection in the woods) we've been able to recreate the Mongolian experience whenever the urge has taken us. Last weekend we went up to install a stove and prepare the yurt for winter...and the weather didn't disappoint, dropping 3 inches of fresh snow on us as the temperature dropped to -5. Inside the yurt was toasty however, although stacking wood to dry on top of the stove was, with hindsight, a rather daft idea - waking as we did at 4am in a smoke-filled yurt after the wood caught fire and we were well on our way to being 'kippered' in the resulting fumes. Outside though the woods were a wonderful, wintry wonderland of fresh snow and icy branches. Camping in November has never been quite so marvellous. Compare our yurt with our pictures from Mongolia itself via our photo archive here.
