Anyways, my parents had just gone up north this past weekend and were walking on the trail when they noticed our shelter deeper in the woods. They said it was still standing, not only that but it was still really sturdy and usable, like it was a week old. Just not as green and a bit weathered.
I've built many shelters before, but this was my first 'dome' type. i'm surprised it has lasted this long.
