Default Re: How's Your Yurt Handling The Cold?

We're in the middle of our 4th winter in our Groovy Yurt and we can't imagine ever living in a "normal" house ever again. We consistently go through about 4.5 bush cords of firewood per year--90% of it being spruce, with poplar for warm days and birch or tamarack for cold nights. Right now, it's about -34C/-30F outside and it's 25C/77F inside with no strain whatsoever on our cookstove. If it gets really cold tonight I'll use a piece of birch that I've been saving for years but haven't needed yet.
