    Looking for wall tent advise? Like what to buy?

    We use a Glacier fish house on the new land for sleeping, TV, cooking etc…problem is there is not much room for gear and I hate bringing all the dirt in.

    So, I was thinking I could put up a wall tent for all our gear and a place to hangout while taking a short break between hunts.

    Any recommendations?

    Thanks, Jason

    Canvas wall tents are going to be an expensive solution and they need to be very well dried and packed to avoid mold and a terrible mess.

    I’d think about one of those portable shed / carport deals. Leave the frame up, take the cover down. Durable enough that you could set it up well before seasons and take it down afterward.

    These go on sale for around $200 if you watch the Harbor Freight ads.

    How about a normal shed? It’s something you’ll need anyway as you develop your land. Just make sure you make it larger than what you think you’ll need.

    If your going to “Use” it and heat it, canvas is very difficult to beat, but is very costly. Even used is hard to come by and are still very pricey.

    If your looking for just a storage tent for gear out of the weather and minimal use, these Walmart ones aren’t too bad. We have one we put our clothes rack in and hang our clothes on trips. The other option as mentioned above is the garage type storage tents

    I was considering this same thing for my hunting property. I’ll try to post the link if I can find it
