Wall Tent
mullet:
It also pulls in air like an attic fan.

I got a buddy in Bar Nunn, Wyoming that makes fine quality canvas goods. He made my 9x13 bell back wedge tent 8 years ago and I am nothing but satisfied with his workmanship. He makes wall tents for plenty of elk guides and has had their imput on what works and what don't work for quite a while. He makes Period Correct for the rendezvous scene and modern equipment for the rest. Drop me a pm and I can get you in contact with him.

You want one that has opening in each end for the ridge pole to slide thru.Having the ridge pole on the inside lets you put up a hanger to hang wet stuff on,very important to be able to dry your stuff out plus warm dry boots in the morning. You want a good closure system at the door. I like a stove pipe port that goes out the side. It makes it easier to really poly- tarp the top well, when really hard weather rolls in. (Eliminates leaks too) Dirt flap around the bottom of the walls,(Cuts down on drafts) I have had several from 8x10's to 12x20's My favorite has turned out to be the 12x14 with 5 foot walls.
