A few questions:
1. Is reindeer skins warm enough?
Yes - absolutely. It is some of the best. Native people in some of the coldest areas of the world, such as Inuit and Sami, used reindeer fur for the warmest winter gear - coats, boots and sleeping bag etc.
2. Is the water safe?
Yes - Sapmi is clean and remote nature.
7. Why add wood on the outside on the tipi?
It helps preventing the moss from falling down.
8. Is the shoes waterproof?
Yes - or just the same as common leather boots. Keeps a lot of water out - but only if they are well made and you take care of the leather.
