RE: Caribou Hunting from Tent
Are you looking at a canvas one or the alanak with the XTC fabric? We hunt Alberta at the end of November and a couple of years ago it didn't get above -25 degrees C for five days. It is tiring because someone has to stoke the stove all night. You'll want to bring straw or some other insulating material for the floor and then some poly so that as the frost melts it won't soak the floor. We have an old discarded road sign for under our stove. We put sand at the bottom of the stove so it doesn't burn through. Stack a lot of wood behind the stove against the walls to reflect some heat back in and also to help dry it. A poly tarp to act as a fly and to shed snow over the roof out of the way of any embers is good to. Go to the Davis tent website, he has great tents at good prices and you can spec it however you want. He has good stoves like the outfitters ones in Cabelas.
