wyo,
I was wondering about the amount of starting poles the Shoshone use. I'm glad you answered this question.
The reason I wanted to know about the Shoshone is that their relatives, the Comanche also use 4 poles.
I wonder if 4 poled tipis are more sturdy than 3 poled tipis during inclimate weather?
