This nomad’s tent is made from hand woven yak wool and was originally brought to the United States as part of an exhibit on Tibetan culture at the Smithsonian Museum in Washington D.C. where it remained for one year. Subsequently, our friends Jim and Carol acquired it through a friend and kept it at their home near Kalispell, MT for some years. Khen Rinpoche and some friends recently went up to Jim and Carol’s property to visit their herd of yaks at which time Jim and Carol offered the tent to Khen Rinpoche to keep at the garden.
