Where are these tent cities specifically? I really want to know this information. If people can winter in Yurts and Tipis, they can live in a *framed* hexayurt style structure. People also sleep in fabric tents..on mountains...in blizzards. There is only so much snow that can fall on a building before sliding off or melting. "Normal" cabins (and houses) collapse from snowload too. They are not magically immune. Then you are in *more* danger due to the heavy weight of building materials over your head. I lived in Northern NY near Tug Hill. Believe me, I've seen snow on houses. With foam boards: http://youtu.be/24PUItu5PZE Without foam boards: http://youtu.be/k0JNJPwY2Ic It can be done. No doubt about it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hexayurt" group. To post to this group, send email to hexayurt@googlegroups.com.
