Free: Contests & Raffles.
Make sure you get 5 foot or larger sidewalls. There is a guy in Buckley that has been trying to sell a couple of dandy's on Craigslist in the sporting goods area. The look nice. I would of jumped on them If we didn't allready have 3......
We use a 14x16 Kwik Kamp canvas. Slept 4 this year, but kinda cramped with stove, gear, and tables. We also all have the XL cots, so those take up some room. I think 3 is the biggest number for my size tent to be comfortable. Would love to get a porch extension or additional tent for cook shack and gear.
They are big, but NICE!!! I know there are plenty of minimalists here, but I like to be as comfortable as I can be. The XL cot with a nice thick pad, and a warm sleeping bag makes all the difference. I get better sleep and feel more rested in the morning when it's time to get up for the next day's adventures.
