Default Poles and hardware

Last year I did a roadtrip to Eccles Hill and stopped at Dunham, Quebec SE of Montreal on the road to Eccles Hill. The local Home Hardware store has a garden centre AND a large surplus store in the back. The area seems to have many working farms and woodlots, where I would expect to find deer and turkey hunters. I was looking for jeep accessories and period appropriate stuff. They had metal jerry cans in the back tin shed, and a lot of pre-modular tent poles and hardware. I recognized some marquis tent poles in the barrels of bits and pieces. A roadtrip is required
