Wow...it looks just like mine ..LOL...
I used a plywood roof and just fastened a rubber membrane product to it to avoid the sound issue. After a few years the pine needles built a nice 'mulch' over top of it and there is no noise inside.
I also DIDN'T seal up the inside, I built in a 1" air space around the roof to wall joint to allow the fumes from my catalytic heater to escape.
I have to say, it was worth the effort and I have been enjoying mine for many years. Congrats on getting her built !!

They'll become acclimatized to it quickly.

I was thinking of rifle,SH or ML season... Generally in southern Ontario season is one week for each and my comment was more of a compliment than anything else

I understood, thanks, these kind of permanent stands are a great place to escape to just to watch the wildlife.
In the Eastern Ont...it's Bow, rifle, Bow, then ML and then Bow again....3 months of hunting...my wife hates it
