This may not be totally PC, but I would not recommend a wall tent for hunting, or for anything else for that matter.

I mean, you asked. So I'm telling you straight up. In my hunting career to date, I've gone through a "wall tent" phase, in between my "tentcamping" and "RV" phases, leading up to my current "motel and cafe" phase. These phases have taken my over 4 decades of hunting, so hopefully I can give you some advice that will help you out.

Wall tents are a PITA to set up, take down, move while changing hunting areas, and to store in the offseason. There is no canvas made that is waterproof -not even the treated military stuffthat weighs a ton (I know from experience). There is no canvas made that is not heavy and prone to cementinginto theicearound the tent's bottom edgesin frigid weather, so when you take it down in a Montana elk hunt you have frozen ice chunks along with the tent.In wet weather they are wet. In cold weather they are cold. In muddy weather they are muddy. Did I mention they are heavy and bulky?

If you heat a wall tent with awood stove (always the romantic advertisement), you will get smoked out everytime the wind backdrafts the stove pipes. You will get filthy dirty from messing with the stove, stove pipes and spark arrestor (required in all national forests). You will need a chainsaw and axe to feed the stove. The chainsaw requires additional filthy tasks, as well as risk that if it dies, your butt freezes. To top that off, after a week of such camping w/o access to a hot shower daily, you'll greatly resemble the Unabomber upon capture.

Wall tents are also expensive. You should include the cost of a frame and floor in the equation. Also a woodstove and related items. A quick look at a Cabelas' catalog puts you in the $2K range easily. For that, you can find a good used travel trailer to use as a hunting camp. For that, you couldspend a high percentage ofthe rest of your hunting tripsin a motel with someone coming in each day to clean up "hunting camp" for you, and fluff up your pillow.

If the RV/Motel phase isn't here for you yet,better you stick with a quality weatherproof tent (good ventilation is especially important here in cold weather)that you can stand up in to get dressed. Get a quality thick insulated pad to keep you off the ground. Get a quality sleeping bag and some blankets. Forget thebag that's good to -30 when wet. If it gets that cold or my sleeping bag gets wet, I'm heading in. Get the versatile +30bag andbring someblankets/quality long johnswhen needed.Get an indoor-safe propane stove to take off the chill and dampwhen you get up in the predawn darkness.
