Step by step pitching direction for the ''Teknik Malakhov''
I pitched the tent in my motherinlaw's backyard. The purpose was to show a step by step pitching directions for the readers. More photo from real wilderness will be here soon.

Fix the base layer on snow bye using snow stakes

Fix the tent fly to the same stakes

Tie the ropes over ski poles and anchor

Load snow on the flaps to make the tent storm-proof

Load as much snow as possible for better protection from the wind

Put the center pole from inside

The first residents, my wife & mother in law

Ski as centre pole and ventilation hole

Reliable door with no zip

This is the first prototype, It was about 180 cm high and it was called ''Turkish Minaret'' by me.

The prototype ''Turkish Minaret'' was tested on Kackar Mountains, April 2001
