So the most troublesome spot is the ring of tape around the roof. The straps of tape going up and over are fine - gravity keeps the water out of those seams just fine. At the roof ring, however, rain runs down the roof, hits the edge of the tape, then runs underneath. This is a pain in the ass. If the taping is near-perfect rain can't get under, but that's nontrivial.
I've seen some polyiso panels which are kinda plasticy, and others which are more papery. Which kind do you have?

Thanks. I was wondering if anybody has experience with the hexayurt in humid condition and in rainy conditions? I am planning on taking my HY to Bonnaroo in June in Tennessee. It will be hot and humid and could rain. Does the HY work in humid conditions just as well as it does in the dry desert of Black Rock City? If it rains I will cover the HY with a tarp and of course I will try to make my tape sealed tight. I do not water water getting under my tape. Any precautionary steps or any suggestions on protecting the HY if it rains? Thanks Scrog -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hexayurt" group.
