That’s a beautiful photo my friend. Was it a canvas or natural animal skin teepee?

It is recycled canvas from a large tent on the waterfront that they were putting into a Landfill.

Are you in Michigan ? The large Tent was on the Waterfront of Sault Ste Marie, Ontario.... across the water from Sault Michigan.
Yes I am. I have not been that way in some time.

The Big Chief from the Batchewana Indian band was getting it to reuse and we asked if we could also have a piece 40’ x 20’ for our Teepee down the beach.

Yeah ... we were lucky. But we searched for old canvas for a few years

I’ve done the trusty blue trap teepee before. They work, but are not pretty.

Yeah...the thin blue tarp was a mess in the strong winds ... flapping like crazy

They also shred like crazy too.
We built the frame and then just used a blue tarp for a few years while we searched for the perfect white canvas... extremely expensive to buy online. So I found the pattern and we made our own
