Shelter systems domes seem like a great idea but I saw quite a few pvc strutted domes get pulverized in the intense windstorms last year. The camp right next to us, in fact, had one and the struts bent beyond use. ALthough not as convenient, we bought a metal dome like these http://www.desertdomes.c...

There are 4 ha...
