Primitave hunting camp
Little John:
Thanks Pat, Ed, Bob. Pat yes it was in Salt Creek. I did not know it was called a whelan/baker lean to but our scout troop had a couple of old baker tents back in the scouting days. I would bet that it would be hard to find one today. I liked them for the same reasons, mostly because you could have your fire right in the open side for warmth and being able to cook from the comforts of the tent. Ken

Yep that's a whelan/baker style lean to.I used to camp in one at rendezvous years ago too.Mine was canvas.They sell them.Think it had 2' sidewalls.Same set up with lodge pine poles and an front awning also.I really liked mine for it's quick set up and camping convenience.Great hunters' camp shelter!!!

I threw up a tarp lean to, a few times, even in the military. Panther Primitives has the Whelan and a Bakerin their current catalog, several sizes, and canvas weights. Btw, they are having a sale through 31 Dec, 10% off. I have a new one pole on order!
