Wall Tents

Make sure you get a good frame. A good test is to see if it will support your weight if you hang from it. I can do pull ups on my Kwik Kamp frame.

I perfer a side stove jack. I use a Cylinder stove and have been happy with it. I hear good things about Kwik Kamp stoves too.

I would recommend getting a heavy duty rain fly. I use a very thick tarp that is about 20 lbs. for my 10X12 tent. I made it with about a 4 foot over hang on the opposite side of the stove outlet to keep rain away from the tent and works well for dry storage too.

Yakima tent, 100%!!!  This is a great "local" company that has been around forever.  My 12X14 does fine with a big buddy..

Call Rich and talk to him about what you are looking for.  I purchased a 14 x 16 wilderness from him after shopping around and he still has some of the same deals going on.  The will answer any and all questions that you might have, not to mention they are in Moscow, ID  so you could even travel their on a day trip and check everything out.

we bought all our gear from them.
16x32 is the way to go with all the bells and whistles.

I have the cabelas 12x14 and like it pretty well.  We cover it with a tarp when it's set up to help with waterproofing and to add some protection.  I also pack it way back into the boonies and use logs as a frame- it works pretty well.

  This comes from 40 years of use.

We also prefer the stove jack on the wall vs the roof.

I have a Bravo and love it.  He made the floor mat also and it works great.  I also got the snow fly from him, it is white and lets more light in than a blue tarp.  He custom makes everything to your specs so if you want a slightly bigger tent, always go bigger than you think you need and you will be happy.  We have a 15x15 tent and a 15x9 extension.  I wish the extension would have been 10 feet instead then all of my side posts would have been the same size.  The other good thing he has is he makes the bags for all of the parts to keep it organized.  I would highly recommend Bravo to anyone.
