BUILDING THE WALL TENT FRAME, AND BED # 1 JULY 11, 2011

 NOW BEE IS ALLOWED TO ROAM FREE...... BUT ONLY WITH HARNESS AND A ROPE AND BELLS SO THAT WE CAN LOCATE HER.  WE ONLY USED THIS THE FIRST DAY THEN SHE CAME AND WENT AT WILL FOR THE REST OF THE TRIP.

 BRYAN HAD CUT RANDOM 1 1/2" PLANKS AND MADE A FLOOR ON 3 PURLONS.  THIS IS NOT NECESSARY BUT WE WILL HAVE THE WALL TENT HERE AGAIN IN MOOSE HUNTING SEASON AND SO IT MAKES BEING OUT IN THE BUSH REAL NICE.  BRYAN CUT 14' AND 13' POLES FOR THE FRAME TO HANG THE TENT ON.  IT'S A 10 X 12 X 5 FORT MCPHERSON, N.W.T. TENT & CANVAS WALL TENT AND WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM.  WE HAD A WINDOW AND STOVE VENT PUT IN AS OPTIONS.

THE A FRAME POLES ARE LEFT LOW AT FIRST TO INSTALL RIDGE POLE WITH TENT ROPED ON. 

NEXT TIME WE WILL NOT PUT LOOP THU RIDGE POLE.  WE WILL JUST ROPE IT ON.  MAKES IT EASIER TO REMOVE TENT AND STILL LEAVE FRAME UP FOR NEXT TIME

CENTRE RIDGE POLE IS 8 ' LONGER THAN WALL TENT SO THAT RAIN TARPS CAN BE PUT UP.
