I love to camp when I hunt. This is my camp for most fishing & hunting trips, it's fine until it's cold enough to snow. Some friends & I survived 5 days of driving rain in Alaska a few years ago in the same model of tent. Every tent camp is a compromise.

Two guys can have it up & ready to go in an hour, taking it down takes just a little longer.

It's no wall tent, but it's served me well. This photo was taken on an antelope hunt in Wyoming this last Sept. We were able to drive right to this camp, if you have to boat in, canoe in or go in on horseback, I'd pack a bit lighter. If I'm driving in I'm going to bring comforts like chairs, air mattress and cold beer & fresh food. I can rough it, but I'd prefer not to if it's not necessary for the hunt.

Give me an old coleman stove (gas) a warm sleeping back and lots of ice and I'm a happy camper.

Here's a picture of camp.

I generally set up for 4-6 days when I'm not hunting close to home. Wall tent with cooking fly. Take stuff in in trailer and just enjoy the time and place.

We usually set up a permanent camp and hike from there. I too can rough it if necessary but I'd much rather have a comfy camp to come back to after a day of humping up and down mountains. If it's just me and Brad we'll take one tent. If there's 3 or 4 of us we'll have two tents (we all sleep on cots). Like I said, I like a comfy camp: chairs, good food and a nice, big, warm sleeping bag
