Wheeler only parking

Never thought about snow--I can move it over a tad if need be.

Nothing is holding it down right now--its not close to light and being open on both sides I can't see it wanting to lift off. I am going to bend some rebar and anchor it a little but if there are nasty winds I can easily anchor it to the toy.
 
I've seem trampolines fly 4 blocks before and you're in hurricane lane just a thought may be just fine...
 
But those are very light and have a perfect wing,lol..

Tie that thing down!!! I built a 12x22x14 feet high cover for our camper built out of medium thickness square metal tube (old fence posts) heavy as hell. Covered with a thick tarp material and in high winds it will start to pull the tiedowns out of the ground.
 
My carport was open on 3 sides yet it took off like a kite and nearly took the mobile home with it! Lifted the front corner almost a foot off the ground then dropped back down, knocking me and the fridge over. Finally tore loose and dropped on the neighbor's carport, flattening it but that was sure a long 10 seconds! :mad:
 
I am going to stake it down in a couple spots just for piece of mind.... Its only 7ft tall and I could see something allot taller having more lift off capabilities,lol
 
I think you should hook up your go pro inside of it already because it is obvious that it IS going to fly away soon :haha:
 
Had I known mine could do that, I would've aimed my security camera up more. I'm in Lynnwood and it wouldn't have happened if the management hadn't cut down the row of trees on my lot that was blocking the blast from the south for the past 30 years. The way this place is set up, the wind is funneled through the complex in a sweeping curve that gets fed more from between each home, similar to feeding a turbo, and mini-twisters happen here in every elevated windstorm from the south. The insurance agent estimated a sustained gust of over 70 mph to tear the 4 anchors out of the ground and concrete.
 
I finally got around to getting a 20x20 10mil tarp and it fits almost perfect..
