Looks to me like you guys did a pretty good job sparky nutin wrong with that set up... I set up many a wall tent with rails (yes even some green ones) and they never looked no better than that..
One thing tho we should have some before and after pics eh,, I always take most of my camp pics before,, old camp usually looks a little rougher after a few days in and by the end of a week or two sometimes she can look pretty rough..

I agree walleyes. Sparky did a great job setting that tent up. You should see some of our tent set ups when we do it by light at midnight. lol

Tell me about it. I remember one fall in WMU 402. Putting up the tent in the middle of the night, falling asleep and waking up to a wonderful full moon. I actually sat there and admired it for approx 30 sec before I realized I shouldn't be seeing the moon. The whole one side of the tent had flipped over from a big wind gust. I put my head back in my sleeping bag and decided to wait till morn.

Heres our stone sheep camp last year it was the first time i had ever seen this idea, and we were stranded in the tents for 5 days and this was very cozy beleive it or not, a piece of plastic for a cook shack on a great hunt. Tawny the outfitters daughter 15 years old was in tehre and hiked the whole 14 days too.

Here's the camp I like to rent every now and then.
Grist lake lodge - had some very good hunts there.
Boat access only until freeze up.

One of my tent camps in the late 70's when I was guiding.

That's to help break the wave action and snow in front of the cabins.
That trip was a really gnarly affair, I drove the boat right out of the water onto the beach ( It's hard as rock, frozen stiff!) to ensure it didn't swamp with the storm.
if you look close, you can see that the boat is completely iced up!
Gunslinger, it's a really easy trip in now, paved most of the way - too bad, there are a lot of idjits making day trips now!

Nothing to fancy on this sheep hunt. We spent one night under a spruce tree with just a fire while a storm was blowing in and you learn really fast to appreciate camp.

I would show yo my camp but then you would all want to come.
The "tent" is an army modular tent, 20' wide X 72' long and an 8' long veranda where the BBQ is at.
The sauna/steam house and wash shack is 8X8 with 2X4 insulated walls.
We have everything except a microwave..
here's some tasters..
the shack with the blue tarp is the steam bath/sauna/shower shack.
inside the "shack"
This pic is of 1/2 of the size of the tent. I was standing at the divider between the kitchen and sleeping 1/4's.
