Ruby Yurts

The nearly ridgetop Ruby High Yurt and aspen-ensconced Conrad Creek Yurt are situated in prime locations for jaw-dropping views and easily accessible terrain. The yurts are family-owned and operated by the same folks behind the almost 50-year success of Ruby Mountain Heli-Experience and the spectacular Ruby 360 Lodge getaway. Whether you’re looking for the ultimate backcountry escape while skiing or hiking the Ruby Mountains or simply looking to switch off and kick back with one of the finest Nevada glamping experiences, the yurts are sure to deliver.

The lodge and yurts are located just 30 minutes from Elko in northeastern Nevada at an elevation of 7,000 feet. Nestled at the base of Conrad Creek in the Ruby Mountains, it’s a stone’s throw from the quaint town of Lamoille and the gorgeous Lamoille Canyon.

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 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 couple ways: hiking up 3,000 feet over the course of three miles with a guide or taking the express route via RZR ride. No matter how you get in, it’s undoubtedly worth it.
