Bid on Our Retired Club Yurt

Presented by the Lander Nordic Ski Association

About the Yurt

For over 20 years, this 16-foot canvas yurt has served as a warm and welcoming hub for the Lander Nordic Ski Club community. It has offered shelter, storage, and a gathering space during countless winter seasons.

As we look ahead, we're transitioning to a new yurt that better meets the club’s evolving needs. This upgrade is made possible thanks to your generous donations from our community through Challenge for Charities (C4C) and the support of key grant funding from the Lander District Rec Board.

We are now offering our old yurt for sale through a public bidding process. While the fabric walls and roof have reached the end of their useful lifespan, the structural frame and recently added ceiling insulation remain in good condition and represent the bulk of the current value. Proceeds from the sale will help support club operations and future infrastructure improvements.
