I have recently and after lots of planning put up a small (14' Diam) tipi in s clearing in the woods, and will be living in it for the winter and possibly longer. I left my poles un-peeled, as it appears you did as well. How did that work for you? Any rubthroughs on the cover, or dripping from the roughness? My cover is made from old billboards sewed together, so heavier than yours, but breathability is about the same (~0%). Did you ever add an inner liner to go to the ground on the inside? There seems to be very little info out there about making your own improvised tipi for long term use, I was just wondering if you had any insights-if so, please post them so google can pull them for others who are doing tipi searches! Thanks, and have a great day. Here is a thread on paleoplanet about my tipi adventure (ongoing) http://paleoplanet69529.yuku.com/topic/37761/t/Living---tipi---woods-pics--thoughts--time-progresses.html Hello Ben, good work on your tipi-if you don’t experiment, you never learn!
