Create memories on a private tour to the rustic Rock Springs Yurt in Jackson Hole’s scenic and legendary backcountry terrain. Joined only by your closest friends and family, a knowledgeable guide, and the sights and sounds of the Bridger Teton National Forest, you will enjoy dinner, dessert, breakfast, hot drinks, a peaceful night sleep, and of course, a great backcountry experience. 

Rock Springs Yurt outside

The yurt is located at the base of Rock Springs Canyon and is accessible from the top or bottom Rock Springs backcountry gates, or by a 1-2 hour trek/ski-in from the base of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. The Yurt places you in the heart of the Bridger Teton National Forest, offering quiet solitude in a wilderness-like setting.

There are also many other options to enjoy the solitude and beauty of the backcountry yurt without the full overnight experience. Add a hot gourmet lunch while relaxing and warming your toes to any backcountry guided tour, or attend an Apres Ski event after a long day of skiing or snowboarding for drinks and appetizers.
