    The metal cables that you drive into the ground rot over time

    Happy that nothing got ruined.

    I think I would add new anchor cables every three years moving forward.

    Eta: The poles on mine are lag bolted to doubled up 2x6s that run the length of the shelter. No anchor cables. No blow overs in 3 years

    I had mine also lagged into the wood floor using muffler clamps as a strap. I relied more on the three foot anchor cables as the wood floor is starting to deteriorate!

    Buddy of mine joked that I told him a couple weeks earlier that I wanted to move the tent....he said that it took care of itself. I gave said friend the tent for free, we are going to set it up on his land on top of mafia blocks so that we can pull our crawler and wood chipper under cover. The Rhino shelters are not a bad set up. I have had feet of snow accumulate on it in past years before I could drive over and scrap it off, they really are useful for the $600 they cost.

    Anyway it forced me to move the last of my toys into the pole barn which I am very happy about.

    Rumor has it that Lollipop Guild Inc. participated in the bidding process for the reconstruction of this storage facility, but came up short. Obviously there was alot at stake, and someone else got roped into it.
