That is awesome, I would love to live in one for awhile. I have slept a couple months in a cedar bark tipi and round hose and loved every minute of it. It was in the summer months in Shasta california. I slept on a tule mat and with a fire next to me i was so coooozy, i was out before i knew what hit me. The cedar bark repelled water wonderfully and if it leaked you just adjusted the cedar. It made me whish i was born about 600 years ago. My friend and Elder who built these told me that Even when it was cold out side it was very toasty inside, he had to strip down. When you burned manzinita there is almost no smoke and popping of the wood very comfortable.
