We always put our tp in a plastic snap lid coffee container, keeps the elements and mice out.  :twocents:

We keep our in sealed ammo cans.  Wet wipes and TP in one......blue shop style paper towels in the other.   :chuckle: :chuckle:  The ammo cans are screwed to the crapper and will keep bears out.   :chuckle: :chuckle:

The coffee can's work really well and are used in Canada by our moose guide. 

Side note....those blue paper / shop towels are pretty soft and work really really well for cleaning.

The wall tent on the wet side was a huge upgrade over a motor home in the mid 80’s . A wood stove to dry stuff out and stay dry. It wasn’t long after the Coleman camp oven was the next best thing growing. The smell of hot apple pie outside of the tent was pretty nuclear.Lots of little stuff was added of the years. Adding a generator and freezer was a game changer also. No need to make sure there were bags of ice for several coolers. Gallon jugs were cycled as needed through the freezer. A#1 on my list will always be the extremely hot showers that made everything wonderful along with clean socks and underwear. A very nice stiffy after that was perfect.I remember guys bragging about going all season with no shower. Damn how brutal!

Elk camp is a maybe a two man tent for me...so if I remember the wet wipes it's a good day...

Burning butt is real, and a game changer!

A good trailer with heat, shower, toilet, fridge and a queen size bed is luxury for me. Especially if you also do a camp in a tent in the same year you really appreciate the trailer.
