that is so awesome that you have a tipi Keenan, I've been wanting to make myself one for years, just haven't gotten up the nerve to try one yet... Hope you get to bring it to the classic I would like to see it.

Pappy, poplar saplings might be an option or even some 2' to 4" diameter bamboo.

How about some of those Sweetgums?
On top of the hill, on the right as you are going in, down in that little growed up low spot.

If my wife works next weekend I'll try to come down and help you cut a few of those poles. Last weekend sure done me a lot of good

That would be great Shanon,get you and Jesse and then I can supervise.

Ya that was fun last week,the weather could have been better,it is supposed to be nice this weekend at least till Sat. evening late.We have a club meeting and working Sat. or I would cut them then.It shouldn't take to long.Keenan do they need to be 2 or 3 inches across the stump
or at the small end ?

Thanks Pappy and Shannon and whoever else may end up helping on this. 2-3 inches on the butt end is normal and one that is slightly larger for the lift pole (3-4) The size on the top end isn't that important. Thanks again.
