Colorado Yurt Lattice WallThe Colorado Yurt lattice wall is made from clear, vertical grain Douglas fir. Each piece of lattice in the yurt wall is smoothly machine sanded to exactly 1-½” wide x ½” thick. This gives the wood a very finished look and a perfect rivet connection where the lattice pieces cross. The lattice wall of the yurt is fastened at one-foot intervals with pull rivets and stainless steel back-up washers. The wall can expand and contract like a baby-gate. Fully expanded, the height of the yurt wall is 5’-10” for a Standard Height Yurt or, 6’-9” for the optional Taller Wall Yurt.
