Leaning stacks with a cap

So far the 2 row leaning toward each other with a bark side up
1/2 round, to cover the joint in the middle is working.
Snow on top & none in the middle YET! ( have only had mild winds to 45 mph.)

Seem to be stable, I can see some movement
as it dries but no signs of it starting to fall over yet.





High noon shadow . Less than 7° high noon sun angle now.

 

Well, springtime is right around the corner.
Water goes where it wants.
Good experiment.

 

Nice pics Dave. Do you ever find critters living in the space? Looks like a good place to get out of the weather.

 

Cat likes to sneak thru there. Did see a mouse track close by. Cat probably got it.
Critters that would fit , usually sleep underground in a den, this time of the year.
Pallets off the ground & loose stacked, pretty cold in there.

 

Not used to it but have experienced it for years.
Late Jan, the snow get blown away by 60 to 80 mph winds, not sure where it goes though?
So 45 mph is not bad.

The norms here are extremes in other places

Above zero degrees F here, is a mild winter too

Some extremes here for sure.
4' of ice on our lakes, makes ice fishing a little more work

 

Brilliant stacking, Dave. Makes sense too.

 

Cool, looks like its working

 

Gotta' be tougher to live up there for sure

 

Not tougher
CRAZIER ! LOL

 

I would like to get up there someday. All these tv shows about Alaska are tempting me

 

Looks like they are holding up well. I am going to guess they will make it through just fine. Good idea leaning them towards each other and stacking over the center.

 

Thanks
We'll see what happens when the wind & drifting snow hits.
