Short Description: Ymir Yurts - Backcountry Resort

Long Description: Wilderness cabins/yurts in remote hike/heli access. Great for skiing, wildlife viewing, relaxing.

We have the best terrain for all weather and avalanche conditions. The Yurts are located perfectly for all levels of skiers to access their perfect terrain. The powder snow is usually perfect. Ski runs are generally quite long but not intimidating. If it does not snow in the evening we tend to get a light breeze which covers up most of the tracks especially if they another groups. The guide and the cook live to serve you......
