Hello,
We recently purchased a 1993 Damon Challenger 5th wheel (30') in super condition. We will be storing and using this mostly at our recreational property, where it gets heavy snow. My question is, are 5th wheel roofs designed to support all of that snow weight? Does it have to have some kind of covering to keep the snow off of it? I have seen people make wooden structures that sit on the roof and then they cover it with a tarp (ugly) at steep angles so no know sticks. Is this necessary? What are your experiences? Anybody have a roof cave in? Sorry if this is a dumb question! Thank you in advance for any advice you have for me.
Monica
