Cross-country skiing and snowshoeing enthusiasts will find Green Canyon Yurt accessible via a 3.8-mile groomed trail with steady inclines. Powder Ridge ski touring manages this hike-in accommodation during winter months, maintaining the access road almost daily for Nordic skiing with designated tracks. The yurt sleeps 12 people on four twin-over-full bunk beds and includes a cooking area, table, cookware, and wood-burning stove for heat.
Campers should respect the groomed ski tracks when snowshoeing to avoid damaging the surface. The facility operates on a reservation system with pricing structured for group occupancy. For those exploring northern Utah's winter recreation, sites near Hyde Park provide additional options in the Cache Valley area.
Description
Green Canyon yurt is a 24-foot diameter yurt that sleeps up to twelve people. It is located at the end of the Green Canyon groomed ski trail (i.e., the end of the summer road), so it offers a good introductory yurt experience for new skiers or snowshoers. For the adventurous, it is a great base camp for ascents of Bierdneau Peak and beyond. It includes sleeping pads, a wood stove for heat and melting snow for drinking water, a propane stove for cooking, LED lanterns, and a full array of kitchen utensils, dishes, and cookware for 12. The Green Canyon yurt is served by a permanent vault toilet.
