Not nearly as solid, but inexpensive, easy to pack, and quick to set up. Tape down to a tarp to keep out the dust. Stake out to survive 50mph winds.
Pressurize in bio-warfare environments- assemble 2 together sharing a wall as an "air lock"... enjoy!
Warning- Does not keep out "rage zombies"
- falcolas 10y agoThe yurt is a great and timeless design, but it's not really designed for the same longevity or environments as an Igloo. Yurt: Protection from sun and wind Igloo: Insulation from cold and wind, structurally protected against weight of snow on top of it The modern iterations on both of these ideas will have similar constraints (though modern materials can push the constraints further).
