Ugggh, that's shitty to hear, especially since part of what I was looking forward to was strategically placing our canopy near the tent in a way that it will help block *some* of the early morning sun that roasted us as we tried to sleep last year. Guess I'll just be waking up early to put up the canopy before we head into the festival.

I wouldn't worry about it quite that much. The early morning was not when the wind was. This was more early to late afternoon.

The grounds' crew came through and hauled away all of the broken and toppled canopies, and there were plenty of confused campers upon returning to their campsites that night. Thankfully some of our friends were around to help get our site sorted out and to warn us about what had happened before we got back.

@stormy - That's good to know. I remember intense winds at the gorge but hadn't paid much attention to when they started.
@dani46 If you can get the photo working I'd be very curious to see the setup. I think I'll still most likely take the canopy down when not in use during the day, but I'd still like to see.

You had the image tags right but you need a url between them.

I feel like an idiot for all the years I went to Sasquatch without a canopy. Especially 2009, when I'm pretty sure I got heat exhaustion. That shit is as essential as protein and walkin' around beers. This is me feeling like an idiot.  I also promptly changed out of pants after this picture was taken.

What that still image fails to illustrate is Sara(h) in fact humping the pooper.

My vaginer gobbled up the entire vehicle shortly after the picture was taken.

You should know that my persona on this board is me filtering myself a fucking ton.
