Leigh,

Just one more question: at what intervals were your hoops spaced? Four
feet or 6 feet? All of ours are 6 and we know they won't withstand a
lot of snow load (and, fortunately, so far, haven't had to). Most in
snow country are spaced at 4 feet, which is, of course, more expensive.
Unfortunately, this winter has proven that even those of us who don't
expect snow load, might get it anyway, and might want to be more
prepared!

Thanks for the great information. It will help everyone.
