Yeah, the tent I used at the last minute last year (because my normal camping tent was stolen by my psychotic ex-girlfriend) underwent a torture test when that windstorm came through. I was in it at the time and finally resorted to pulling the tent poles out of place to reduce it's profile in the wind. I was getting lifted off the ground and didn't feel like taking a wild ride.

That said, we are planning on staying in a rental home or at the university. I am just not that fond of Camp Scholler.
