Families of as many as 10 people have had to shelter under a single tent and share cookstoves and bathing facilities with neighbors.

We use a floorless Scott tent as our outhouse, which helps provide a shelter to make this basic function much more pleasant, especially when the wind is howling and the snow is blowing.

And as the tent town grew, so too did the number of families seeking shelter in the camp. There were now 63 families there.
