  • Today marks the 24th anniversary of 9/11. I pray that this nation does not forget the loss of lives from this horrible event. Yesterday conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was murdered, and I worry about what is to come. Please love one another and your family in these trying times - Spark

Anyone make a teepee from a tarp?

Rick, that's really interesting....thanks for posting those pics. Is this the bottom of the chimney?

We would raise the stove up when it was lit, or when new fuel was added. Once it burnt down to coals we would drop it to a couple inches off the ground. Whole thing would glow red and there was little smoke. The whole thing worked quite well, actually. We had a lot of time to mess around with different configurations. It was a learning/experimenting trip... we tried many different set-ups.

Before I bought mine I used a military surplus parachute. Worked pretty good for summer but i don't know about winter.
 
Theres a lot of thorny locust growing on my favorite stomping grounds. They are a nuisance. Ill cut some of them down for lodge poles. Will be a good project for this winter ,when cabin fever sets in. The more poles the better, right?
 
Magnusson,
In your Day 2 and Day 4 pic, what is the coat/smock that the guy in the middle is wearing? I've never seen one of those before.
