I wash mine after and then hang it in the shop to dry…..then it goes on the shelf till the following season. Never used detergent on my canvas tents either. Broom off the dried debris, hose off the rest and then let dry. Easy as that.

Going to buy a wall tent. Looking for input on which is the best. Something around 16 x20 and a lighter material than the heavy canvas. Our hunting party in on the older side . I have a good wood stove and will be hunting with snow at times. Thanks Larry

Not exactly a wall tent but figured adding in my experience. We had a 16x20 wall tent with stove that was pretty darn awesome but like others have mentioned, does have downsides. The footprint would limit some of the places we could set it up along with it being a longer process to put up that needed multiple people. Add to that the overall bulk of all the parts would fill half the bed of your pickup plus if you only had 2 people it was overkill. We ended up moving to the Kodiak Canvas 10x14 with a pop up canopy in front of it. The tent is perfect size for 2 guys and still plenty doable for 3. Its easy to put up by yourself, waterproof and heats quickly with just a buddy heater.
