Shelter Question
« on: September 16, 2012, 10:58:57 AM »
Just a quick question for you guys running floorless shelters...

Is a sod skirt worth the weight penalty for a late season floorless shelter?

Thanks guys.  :tup:

I was on the fence never having any experience running a skirt before. I was also concerned that the skirt would increase condensation while running a wood stove due to lack of air flow. Not sure if that's a realistic concern or not, but I think I will take your advise and run without it.
