RUBY HIGH YURT
Here, guests have the chance to hang their hat in the heart of the Ruby Mountains, one of the Silver State’s most idyllic mountainscapes. A sincere first-class experience, guests will unwind in luxury after an unforgettable excursion with top-notch accommodations and unforgettable catered meals. The Ruby High Yurt is perched at 9,700 feet on top of the Conrad Creek ridge in the Ruby Mountains, and comfortably sleeps four guests. Complete with a propane stove, solar powered energy for lights and charging electronics, Wi-Fi, and other creature comforts, a night in the Ruby High Yurt most certainly elevates your time in the Rubies.
Sleeping at nearly 10,000 feet makes for an uncommon adventure, but getting to the Ruby High Yurt is an excursion in itself. You can get there a few ways: hiking up 3,000′ over the course of three miles — solo or with a guide — or taking the express route via helicopter or snowcat. No matter how you get in, it’s undoubtedly worth it.
