I thought maybe it was going to be a photo of a custom built mailbox with a tripod for legs... now that would be something.

I'm guessing that it involves the trailer and vertical clearance issues.:-P

It has to do with a temporary structure and violent snow loading.
Then preventing further collapse by draining the water.

appx 6" -8" of wet snow static, then rapid snow unloading from an adjacent Ponderosa Pine tree causing the catastophic failure in the Chinese made tubing frame.

Lesson Learned - Do not buy or use one of these temporary structures in this geographic area.
