    Looking great and a nice spot too! That looks ideal for a wind and solar setup. Great job! Remember to get a fire extinguisher and smoke detector. That goes with any structure, but especially...

    Well, if it was just going to be a small thing that you visit once in a while I would say sure, but not as a residence. A yurt built wrong will leave a bad taste in your mouth. You will know what...

    Well, for myself, the land had been passed down for the last 4 generations. I couldn't wait for it, so I just bought it off my father lol.. Mine is a hunting camp though, so a completely different...

    I would just ask them the possibilities. It can't hurt. I think people down South have an easier time getting these things permitted because insulation is rarely a factor. Most of the time they...

    I use propane in my gas range/stove for cooking. We go through about a 40 pound tank after 1 year. The range is an old fashioned one with a pilot light, no electric. It works great. There are...

    Well, that would depend on how much power you figure you would need. What sort of appliances you plan on running, etc.? The 24 volt system I have up at camp will run the laptop computer, TV,...

    Well, each company does it different. Mine has a giant screw that you turn with a handle that opens one side about maybe 2-3 inches. You position it away from the prevailing wind. I was actually...

    If you do decide to use battery+solar power, consider 12v water pumps. I have two of these at my yurt camp. One to fill the tub, the other to do dishes with in the camp: Amazon.com: Eccotemp...

    I would do what Bob says, but do wrap the pipe in electric heating tape. It doesn't mean you always have to have it turned on, but better to have it on those really cold days.
