[QUOTE="jmden, post: 931804, member: 1742"] The tipi tent style design with single centerpole, if the centerpole is stong enough, handles wind and snowload about at well as could be expected. I've had mine in storms snapping off live 12" DBH trees all over the place with nary a scratch on the TipiTent. Like any design, there is a learning curve and limitations. I would not use a carbon pole. I've done some research and at least one manufacturer uses them, but I will not at this point unless I learn new information. Even with a high-temp resin, if close to the stove, the heat and resin may not mix well. Same for bamboo, and how are you going to pack a bamboo pole? [/QUOTE]
