RE: Wall Tents
I used wall tents for years,we used to pack in a wilderness area on my horses and we always cut our own poles and firewood with a hand saw (no motors or wheels allowed) Was it work you bet but the hunting was great,I am getting up in years now so we don't pack in but go places where we can get to with an ATV (on Old logging roads). With cutting your own poles it takes at least 3 guys to put one up. When 4 of us go we take the wall tent and cook inside that way we can use the hot plate for heating also, When we packed in we were at 10,700 ft. so there was only conifers to burn,So even if they were dead for many years there was still a lot of creoste and pipes had to be taken down every couple of days and cleaned. We used a take down Sims stove for heating and cooking. Seems we always had snow but the wood stove would keep us warm. Was this a lot of work Yes Yes yes but I wouldn't trade those memories for anything.
