Liner can keep it cool

I have an 18' from Spring Valley lodges, I just take it camping. My biggest problem right now is keeping it cool in the summer heat. I'm thinking about going to a smaller tipi because of the gas prices, too dang expensive!

We have a liner. My husband bought mine from Reese Tipi. He got everything for it but the kitchen sink. ha ha ha! The liner works good (for us it seems) on keeping it at least 10degrees cooler in spring/summer.

We haven't hauled it any where yet. but I know we would be doing that soon and going from Cali to South Dakota is a very long haul.

I own 4 tipi's. 2 16 inchers (they're models) ;-) Plus a RK Lodge 14 footer and a Reese 19.6 footer.

Publically i'll use mine for displays at powwows, festivals and scout events.

Privately, i'll use it in my back yard, sometimes to work on it, clean it, or to just enjoy the fire in it during the cold months, plus in spring and fall.

Becareful, if you own tipi's you may be called obsessive.... or as i prefer to be called, enthused. :-D

This is the first in my family for a long time. I love it!! My wish is to gift a Tipi for the elder's in my family (Dad, Aunties and Uncle). Cause then I know they would never go homeless again. This is the first for my Husband's family. He is cali ndn and their tradish homes were huts. We have our up in our yard now. The kids are excited.

Yes, obsessive..hehe.. I think I join you in that.

Tipi Owner's

I was just wondering how many tipi owners do we have here? And how often do you have it set up/use it?

I have a 19.5footer. And I had it almost a year. My husband bought it for me for my birthday last year. I was so excited!! This is the first lodge in our family since my grandmother.

Today we just put it up again (took it down for winter).

I have two tipis now. Just sold one. Hey, even two maybe more than I need. One is for Powwows and the other just just camping.
