interestin,, I was up at Manizanita one time, east of San Diego, on the reservation with a horse group when the rain started, then it turned to snow and the wind really winded,, We had tent's blowin down, camper's rockin, Motor home's movin to put the back end into the wind, Couldn't stay and couldn't get out, Lucky for me I was in a tipi at the time and the wind just can't grab em, I had the stove goin and a LOT of company for a while, ( they don't know that at bout 3 am, we left the tipi and sat in the truck and watched the tipi to make sure it would stand up to the wind,, even put the stove out side for a while,, ) I have heard they will handle the wind, but this was the first time I got to test / sea it,, It make's life easier when you can handle the elements,,
