    Maybe a simple question but I can’t put my head around setting up the Otter XT 1200 cabin like the picture shown … Is it using the support poles to attach the back and front structure poles ? I should have checked them out at the ice show / I know they were on display like this but it slipped my mind. Anyone have any experience in setting it up like this ? I think it would be nice to use to just block wind, I can’t seem to get the canvas/poles to cooperate and hold up appropriately tho D

    You’ll need the big windpole setup on the back wall (upright in pic).

    Outside of that anything more to it ? Whats holding the other poles straight up ? It almost looks like in the corners the other two support poles are spanning across. Is the canvas just weighing it down? I feel like I got that far and couldn’t keep the front poles from falling down into place.

    Here’s a picture of the XT Lodge and XT Cabin at an anlge with just the wind pole in place. I find that I fish in this manner quite often.

    Thanks much , I think the positioning is what through me off … in my picture it almost looks like the front poles are straigh up and down rather then resting on the other ones / angled backwards.
