Here's a few pics Coyote hunting in January, temps got below zero stayed toasty with a small electric heater(I get off season senior rates at the state parks $6.00/night ) a Buddy heater works well also. We spent a week, very comfortable. Spent a week in MT hunting pheasants, had three dogs and kennels in a Honda Element(no room for camping gear) so we took the tent trailer with The add a room, like staying at the Ritz. Spent three years living in a 9x12 wall tent in NW WI got a few strange looks went I brought a date "Back to my place for a drink". AWS |

I spent a lot of nights sleeping in a horse trailer or on the ground miles away from anything in just a sleeping bag and tarp. Tents took up too much room. |

huntinhick, If you go the tent route, I highly recomend a wall tent. The area inside is almost 100% usable, as long as you get atleast 5' walls. I much prefer hunting out of a wall to a camper, you just don't get that cramped up feeling. |

I like tenting but have a small trailer 1970 prowler, older than i am... I got it for $400including tax and tabs off craigs list... Its great for weekend outings when the weather is marginal... I cant tow it be hind my hunting truck a S10 with the craptastic 2.8... So i kinda wish i had bought an even smaller one like those tear drop trailers or the Fiberglass airstream lookalikes the Casi ta or burro with out all the bathrooms and such... I think just a warm dry place to sleep is what i would like... I'm like many tent folk i like to spend time next to the fire outside because that is camping... Just like a little comfort when sleeping for the next days activities... |

At my elk and deer camps, we usually do not have much snow so we set up on soil. If a bit of snow, I clear it to set the tent... --- End quote --- I use that green outdoor carpet. No problems with holes. |
