I am looking to find something that will allow me mobility in a vehicle base camp near true wilderness areas, that I will be able to break down quickly, as I plan to make many two and three day trips for scouting, etc.
Charlie Brown, You have a bunch or great information already.
I am wondering if you have considered putting a fiberglass topper on your pick up truck? You could load everything you need for 2 or 3-days in the back of your truck & still have room to sleep in the bed of your truck. I have made short camping trips like this myself. Camping in the back of your truck works great for a short time.
I have never looked at any small wall tents or teepees? I own & use a 12'x14'x5' Reliable wall tent. My tent has a Kwik Kamp internal frame. I can set up my tent by myself in 15 to 20-minutes. Yes the 12'x14'x5' tent is on the large side for a short scouting trip. The upside to buying a larger wall tent? Your camp has room-to-grow if you want it to?
let us know what you decide,
