The pavilion we made is complete and performed admirably at our camping event in Shelby, MT.
Shortly after it was put up, a front moved in and we had heavy winds for over 24 hours. I mean, it was roaring and parts of trees came down! But the pavilion never faltered. While the wind sounded like a freight train outside sometimes, we would step inside the tent and could barely hear the wind at all. There was some faint creaking of wood with the heavier gusts, kind of like being onboard an old ship at sea. A few days later when it became cold and rainy (down in the 40s), we were quite dry and comfortable inside.
