I thought it looked odd when I posted it LOL! Sown, sewn. It does take about 30 years around here to get a lodgepole pine tall enough once it is sown.

There are plans online. The key is the inner liner, teepees (or is it tipis?) are worthless without the inner liner that makes the draft for the fire work. I may just use a painter's canvas drop cloth and waterproof it with equal parts of beeswax, odorless turpentine, and linseed oil. Then melt it in to the canvas with a heat gun.

I want to be able to pack it in on my Honda trail, then cut poles on site. I can't find a regular tent I like for under $1000 and those ones are too heavy to pack. Then they need a contained woodstove rather then just a ground fire ring inside.
