Check out this quick bit of behind the scenes footage from the production of an episode of How It's Made focusing on the Colorado Yurt Company's Earthworks Tipi. I'm a huge fan of both How It's Made and the Colorado Yurt Company and have been a proud Earthworks tipi owner for the past four years. I put their tipis to the test a few years ago when I lived through a Maine winter in their 26" model. It held up up beautifully and, with the help of a good wood stove, kept me warm and toasty throughout cold nights, blasting winds, and even a blizzard or two.
The episode hasn't run yet and I'll make sure to share the link as soon as it does. In the meantime you can click over to a post I wrote in 2010 with a video that Colorado Yurt made themselves to show the process of bringing a tipi to life.
Congrats to the hardworking crew at Colorado Yurt for their continued success!
