My Alaknak was set up and used for the fall bow season. Left it up and waited for rifle. A few days before the opener it deposited feet of snow in the mountains. The tent collapsed from the weight. bending the center poles inside and half of the side poles. it took up a couple of days to even get to it to dig it out. Tent was ripped in multiple places where it hit the equipment inside. cots, stove, table... Cut the top off and salvaged the bottom and foot print for tarps. Don't trust the aluminum poles. I had a10x12 wall tent in another meadow a few miles away the survived. It took two more days to get to it. log pole frame.
