Our New Deluxe Wall Tent

Moose camp this fall just took a big step up from years past! My first wall tent was bought in the early 80's and has been too small for some time. Well I cured that with a new Deluxe Wall Tent! This beauty is 14'x20' with 5' walls and a great porch.
Sandi and I are headed out camping for the long weekend and we want to use the new tent, so Sunday morning we girded our loins and decided we better figure out how to set it up.
The frame pieces are color coded to be man compliant, meaning we can put it together without reading the clear concise instructions. Sandi read the instructions, that is how I know they were concise.


 The set up was a breeze and for a complete pair of noobies to the product Sandi and went from start to set in 27 minutes!
 










 Its is as simple as:
1) Assembly trusses.
2) Pull canvass over trusses.
 
  3) Add porch.
4) Put legs under one side at a time.
And done! That easy. The front door is zippered and screened.








A really unique idea is the complete zippered opening on the rear of the tent so you can bring in larger items like a quad that needs work!


The 5' walls really add a lot of interior room.
Windows are canvas covered and screened, a very cool feature is the plastic over that can be attached over the screen with velcro to allow visibility without loosing heat.

Sandi and I are very impressed how quick and easy the huge tent went up and can't wait for our first trip out in it.
