I wasn't sure where this post should go, so figure I'd start somewhere where a wall tent would likely be used...

I'd like to pick up a wall tent in anticipation for some DIY hunts in CO next year. That being said, I have a few questions I'm hoping those w/ some outfitter tent experience could help answer:

1. There will likely be at most 4 people (most likely 2-3). What size tent would work best? I'm sure a bigger tent would provide more flexibility and room, but weight is an issue. We probably won't have access to pack horses, so we may have to pack in the tent on our own.

2.What are thedifferences between internal frames and poles (e.g. external pole set) in terms of durability, setup time, standing up to bad weather, etc?

3. Any good mfg recommendations? Just wondering what people have used in the past and how it panned out.

4. Other things to look out for or consider?

Thanks in advance for any advice on this.
