clam 5600

does anyone have any problems with wind or snow blowing under the bottom where the canvas goes to the plastic base ,as there are no flaps to bank with snow thanks

i have an older 5600 and there are elastic straps sewn to the inside of the fabric but they are almost too short to connect to the inside of the plastic. and it frustrates me when the wind blows cause the hole freezes over faster. i have also had snow blow in too.

If there's now you should be able to bank it to prevent the breeze from entering.

I had that happen with an older one that I had also. My #2 son got it when I got a new one and he solved the problem by drilling new holes for the detent springs that hold the buttons that lock the poles up. He drilled holes two inches down so the ceiling is 2 inches lower, but he has 2 inches more material at the bottom to help it seal up better. I probably explained that poorly but I hope you can picture what we did.
