This tenter will be better off making an igloo IMO. I hope his tent takes off with the wind. Then he'll have to. His dog will help him.

Turbohot, took 6 people to put it up winds were 80-100 kph, the guy over to the left was building a "wind break" to protect the tent a "bit", dogs not allowed as it was the south pole. we had to get it up as basically we needed somewhere to set up the snow melter for drinking water and very importantly somewhere to set the bog up! we were stuck there for 37 hours.

Looks very daring, Ray T. I thought you pulled the image from Google, but quite impressed that there are super hard people that can sustain that sort of conditions to camp out.

I genuinely thought that the distant figure was a huge dog with big brown head and white body. After reading your second post I looked again, and worked out that it could be another human with two legs and a bowed back. Apologies, I must visit Speccy again.

Turbohot, here is a link to the video, give a much better idea of the wind speed etc.

Holy sheet! I'd be a frozen statue in a matter of minutes in such conditions. 50% of me would be dead from the fear alone of being buried alive under the windswept snow before even my blood freezes. Very well done to you and your co-campers.
