my new lodge
n2everythg:
Man that is super cool. Really like the art work on the canvas.
to transport the lodgepoles do you just throw them on a rack on your car? What kind of wood are they and are they heavy?
looks great.

Wade,
The poles are lodge pole pine. I haven't weighed them, but lodge pole is a relatively light weight wood. I carry the poles on the roof rack of my truck.
Cracker,
An ozan is an interior awning. It provides additional warmth in cold climates.
Josh:
That is a very nice tipi Gordon. I really want one too. :)
Parnell:
Beautiful, never had the chance to sleep in one, yet, but walked into a few to check them out. The artwork on that one is as nice as I've seen. Very nice - thanks for posting that!
HatchA:
Very nice indeed!!
I'm guessing the answer's "yes" but are the canvas ones suitable for "all year 'round" use? As in, could I set one up in my back garden and leave it there indefinitely? Does the canvas need to be treated for water-proofing or does the ozan help with that too?
I've got a crappy little 5 man dome tent that my kids keep hassling me to put up so we can "camp out" in the garden. I'd much rather have something like that to use whenever the feeling takes me. (also, it'd be very useful for if/when I pee off the wife and end up in the dog house ;D
