Base camp tent

[HuntMT16]

I am looking for suggestions on a new tent. Specifically looking for a tent that sets up fairly quick/easy that has a floor and is a 10x10ish or has two rooms, or has an add on vestibule. Having a stove would be a big bonus, but not required. I am looking for one that packs down somewhat small. The idea is to load the tent and other camping gear onto a side by side and using the side by side to get to a base camp area. Something similar to an Alaknak tent or a Cabela's lodge tent style is what I have been looking at, but wanted to get other suggestions reviews for any suggested tents.

I will be using it in Montana anywhere between the 5,000-10,000 elevation range from late spring to late fall. (I do plan to use a Mr. Buddy Heater if the tent does not have a wood stove, in addition to a good pad and sleeping bag). I don't want to do a canvass wall tent again but something that will hold up better than a $49.99 walmart special.

Thanks

I got 12x12 alaknak with vestibule, rain fly and barrel stove. If your in market, i don't use much anymore. Pm if interested, if not I don't think you can go wrong with this style if you want to roomy but mobile.

I have a 10x10 and a 12x16 Kodiak canvas and am more than happy with both. Both can add a vestibule and both can handle a wood stove. I have had both in 50mph winds with no problems and set up is super easy.

I bought an Alaknak 12 years ago. Works well but setup is not simple - Its not terrible, but there are a lot of parts. 2 guys that have experience can knock it out in about 20 minutes.

When that guy wears out I'll get a Springbar or Kodiak Canvas.
