IronBuck,

The Kifaru Ultralight tipi is an incredible piece of equipment. It will take any weather and wind. It is roomy and very bright(important), material lets in lots of light even in bad weather. My quarters was a new Marmot Asylum 4 season tent. Expensive junk...........for a few dollars more I could have had the big Kifaru tipi and it wouldn't have weighed much, if any more, and I'd have ten times the room. Two days of blowing rain had the Marmot leaking like a sieve. A $5.00 tarp made a very expensive Marmot liveable. This year it will be the Kifaru, if I can recover from the Rigby rifle and my new super, whizbang digital camera purchases. The camera is a lot like my computer in that I have a long way to go mastering either one. Hope you all have a great season and enjoy the pix.
Oh, and thanks IBuck for posting the pictures, you're a gentleman and a scholar..................
