Default RE: Tents

After years of using tents (members of our group) they switched to the building of a camp made of plastic. We would build a frame complete with some rafters from trees near by. We would have to hang a second layer of plastic to stop condinsation forming on the inside of the plastic (even when the stove stayed burning all night). Without that second layer (dead air space) everything would become soaked from the little water dropplets which would fall onto everything. We also included air vents at the peaks in the walls to let out moisture.

Up here in Canada, there is a company that sells " Outfitter Tents" just like the one that Cabela' s sells but inside side walls are an option as well as a fly on the outside. Why I was asking about the condisation was because I wondered if there was a problem. Did not know if the extreem slope of the roof helped with that problem.
