Floorless in Western WA?

[GBoyd]

I prefer the single wall in all weather conditions.

The factor that does it for me is the size of the tent. I use a homemade pyramid tent that's 10x10 and weighs 1.8 pounds with a SOL emergency blanket as a ground cloth. For that weight, any double wall tents that I know about would have to be tiny. There might be less condensation in wet weather, but you also have to be rubbing against the walls all the time.

Also, I can stand up to put on my pants.

It was good to hear everyone's thoughts. I ultimately decided to go with a Kifaru supertarp with the annex vestibule, in case anyone was wondering, and will run it with a ground cloth. Hopefully a low pitch will keep out any weather. Thanks everyone!

Floorless all day, and that's with a lot of Western Washington use. It's nice to be able to just walk into your tent and worry about getting a floor all dirty before removing your boots.

A lot of these issues listed, aside from possible rodents is just site selection. If it's real wet, say out on the Peninsula, a half liner was absolutely necessary even with the stove I was running.

I have nothing against a full tent, I've just grown real comfortable with the flourless setups.

I have never run floorless but am eager to try it with the stove for cold weather stuff

Nothing like sippin a whiskey and drying your gear over the stove while rain whips down all night around you - priceless.  Dry weather the teepee / stove may be more weight than its worth.
