Elk Mountain Tents

[okie archer]

Just recently discovered this company out of Nampa, Idaho. Customer service rep claims the synthetic/canvas blend is better than the cotton canvas tents. Claims less mold if put up wet, more durable, etc. Seems less rigid than cotton canvas so Im concerned with how well will it hold up to snow.
Anyone have any experience with this brand tent?

I know people with them, knew the owner and have stayed in them. Seem to be really nice. The guy who started Elk Mountain just sold the company, not sure to who or if any changes are in the works.

I have one. Still looks brand new. I do 1 week per year in it. I’ve used it for probably 5-6 hunts. Really no complaints. I like it a lot. I’ve used it in snow, ice, rain. I do put an additional tarp on top when I set it up.

I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on a wall tent. I have not heard of this company before but their prices look good. I'm also curious to see what folks have to say.

I've done a lot of research on tents last couple months. I think I like bell tents for ease of setup.
Things I consider.
1. Prefer made in USA (downside more expensive)
2. Cost effective but still good quality.
3. Ease of setup (bell style I think is easier.)
4. Something for cold weather that won't leak or collapse easily due to snow.
White Duck or Elk Mountain, or Stout, or.......
