-
RIDGE OPENINGS FOR LODGE POLE. Some hunters use lodge pole pine to make a tent frame when packing in to avoid hauling a heavy metal frame on horses.

FRONT ZIPPERED DOOR, YKK #10. Always insure your tent has YKK zippers or you might have zipper problems when you are camping.
-
200' OF ROPE AND 20 TENSIONERS that tightens the tent eave rope connecting to tent stakes.
WILDERNESS CANVAS IS ARMY DUCK - DOUBLE FILL. The highest quality canvas made.
Canvas is made by weaving threads together, crosswise and lengthwise. The Army Duck canvas has 2 threads twisted together making 1 thread. These double twisted threads are woven into the canvas going both crosswise and lengthwise. Twisting 2 threads together into 1 makes Army Duck canvas stronger more durable and also allows the canvas to breath better.
A 10.1 oz Army Duck wall tents are just as strong as a 12 oz Dual Fill.
WILDERNESS GLAMPING TENTS ARE THE TOUGHEST AND STRONGEST TENTS AVAILABLE.
Double layer of canvas on ridge. Eaves reinforced with webbing. Steel D rings on eaves instead of grommets. NO OTHER TENT HAS THIS ADDITIONAL REINFORCEMENT.
TENT FRAME ANGLE KITS DO NOT INCLUDE FRAME POLES
6' SIDE WALL OPTION
-
6' side walls provide much more headroom and usable tent space. 6' walls allows a person to get next to a wall without hitting your head against rafters or canvas roof.
-
Some companies only have 4'7" sidewalls which severely restricts how much space you can actually use.
-
Strongly recommend you ask your suppliers the finished height of side walls before purchasing so you will not be surprised or disappointed upon delivery.
-
6 Foot option only available on FIRE, water and mildew treated tents.

See ANGLE KITS for information on how to easily build a tent frame from steel conduit.
PURCHASING TENT FRAME ANGLE KITS and then purchasing 1” inside diameter, galvanized steel electrical conduit at any hardware store is the most economical approach to purchasing a frame. Normal savings $250-$450 depending on the size of canvas tent and frame.
ANGLES THAT ACCOMMODATE 3/4" STEEL CONDUIT ARE NOT RECOMMENDED. 3/4" conduit weighs about half as much as 1" conduit. Consequently, it is only about half as strong as 1" conduit and can't take much of a snow load.
CUT LIST WILL BE PROVIDED FOR CUTTING STEEL CONDUIT FOR FRAME.
WILDERNESS TENT AND ANGLE KIT special includes the tent and either a 3 rafter, 4 rafter or 5 rafter angle kit depending upon size of tent ordered.
Making a tent frame using steel conduit takes 60-90 minutes depending on size of your tent. Steel conduit is readily available at all hardware stores including Home Depot and Lowes. Only tool required is a hack saw or pipe cutter. All power tools that cut metal will also work.
ANGLE KIT UPGRADE RECOMMENDATIONS
12 x14. 4 Rafter angle kit vs standard 3 rafter. RIDGE SUPPORT. When you use a 3 rafter angle kit there will only be 1 rafter in the middle of the frame supporting the entire roof. A 4 rafter angle kit has 2 rafters evenly spaced in the middle of the frame supporting the roof. You get twice the roof support with a 4 rafter angle kit frame. A much better system especially for snow loads.
16 x 20. 5 Rafter angle kit vs standard 4 rafter. CONDUIT UTILIZATION and RIDGE SUPPORT. The 4 rafter or 5 rafter angle kit both require the same amount of conduit, 21 pieces. A 4 rafter angle kit on a 16 x 20 requires 9 cuts of 6' 6" for the ridge and 2 eaves frame poles. Requiring 9 pieces of 10' conduit. A 5 rafter angle kit has 12 cuts at 5' for the ridge and eaves requiring only 6 pieces of conduit. A much better system especially for snow loads.
16 x 24. 6 Rafter angle kit vs 5 rafter. CONDUIT UTILIZATION and RIDGE SUPPORT. A 5 rafter angle kit requires 26 pieces of conduit while the 6 rafter only requires 25. A 5 rafter angle kit on a 16 x 24 requires 12 pieces of conduit for 6' cuts. A 6 rafter requires 6 pieces of conduit with 4' 10" cuts. A much better system especially for snow loads.
PURCHASING TENT FRAME ANGLE KITS and then purchasing 1” inside diameter, galvanized steel electrical conduit at any hardware store is the most economical approach to purchasing a frame. Normal savings $250-$450 depending on the size of canvas tent and frame.

FIRE RESISTANT CANVAS: Meets CPAI 84 fire retardant code. If a tent is not specifically treated for fire resistance it will burn quickly. Fire Resistant canvas will only burn when there is a flame source present on the canvas. When you remove the flame source the wall tent will stop burning. However, there is no wall tent made that will not burn.
Click SLEEPING CAPACITY for each size of tent. It is sometimes difficult to determine the correct size required and hopefully sleeping capacity info page will be of some assistance.
Extended fly will have stove pipe opening with a tie down flap in the extended section as some people use a stove for cooking outside the tent.
When you receive your tent, set it up, and completely wet it down. Especially on the seams, both inside and outside seams on your tent. Wetting down your tent will cause the canvas to shrink and help close the thousands of needle holes in your tent.
FLY IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED
Fly is a protective tarp, extend the life expectancy of your tent. Also, there are thousands of needle holes in your tent and occasionally a needle hole does not close when the tent is wetted down. The only way to insure your tent does not leak is to put a fly on your tent.
I price my fly's approximately 25-50% below my competitors to encourage individuals to use a fly to protect their tent roof.
EVERY MONTH WE GET CALLS FROM CUSTOMERS WHO BUY A FLY AFTER USING THEIR TENT. Normally customers have spark holes in their tent roof. Or dirt, pitch and tar on their roof that won't come off. A fly is strongly recommend at the time of purchase to avoid possible roof issues. And most importantly, to increase life expectancy of your tent. - Rich
FLY ADVANTAGES- SUMMARY
- SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASES LIFE OF TENT. The roof is the first part of a tent that normally fails.
- Prevents stove spark burn holes in roof. It is much easier and cheaper to replace a fly, if necessary, than a tent.
- Provides another moisture barrier to prevent leaks.
- Protects the cotton canvas from UV rays. Put a cotton shirt outside during the summer and see how UV rays destroys the cotton.
- Keeps roof clean. When camping under a tree, a tree rains down dirt during rain storms.
- Prevents pitch and tar getting on the roof. Removing tree pitch and tar requires a harsh detergent which destroys the roof water, mildew and fire treatment. Then you will have leaks in your roof.
- Fly provides 1 foot overhang on each side of tent by carrying water and snow 1 foot away from side wall.
- Water and snow slides off fly quicker than canvas roof as the fly is completely smooth.
- Provides some insulation value when there is an air gap between fly and roof.
SHIPPING BAGS for floors, fly, extended fly, porches and cook shacks options are not large enough to be used for storage bags.
RECOMMENDATION: ALWAYS KEEP YOUR TENT ROOF AND FLY TAUT SO WATER CAN QUICKLY BE REMOVED FROM YOUR TENT. Water can collect on the roof in an "eave trough" which is a low area just before the sidewall created by a not tight roof or loose fly.
Canvas should be very taut on a tent frame, especially, if set up for extended periods of time and a fly always used. Fly should also be tight to avoid water in an eave trough. Water will eventually go through the fly if saturated for weeks. Canvas saturated in water will rot and mildew regardless of water mildew protection applied. There is no warranty for eave rot.
OPTIONS AVAILABLE
At the bottom of this page are OPTION PHOTOS and explanations. Options include porches, cook shacks, fly's (protective tarp), floors.
TENTS ON PLATFORMS
I strongly recommend you read my recommendations regarding placing wall tents on a
platform.
I strongly recommend
tent frame leg supports on platforms. which are screwed onto the platform. Wood platforms are smooth surfaces compared to the ground. You don't want to have tent frame legs slide off a platform during high winds.
Leaving a tent set up for extended periods of time. Water can collect on the roof in an "eave trough". The trough is the area at the bottom of roof just before the side horizontal tent frame poles. Canvas should be very tight on frame if set up for extended periods of time and a fly used. Fly should also be tight to avoid water and snow in an eave trough. Canvas saturated in water will rot and mildew regardless of water mildew protection applied. There is no warranty for eave rot.

"Received the tent I ordered. Upon inspection, the Wilderness tent is much better than even I expected. Went elk hunting and it rained 3 inches. Not one leak. The Wilderness stove kept us warm all night. We set up a drying pole tied to the 2 middle angles on our ridge just like you recommended. Boots and clothes were dry in the morning and we were ready to hunt in "dry" clothes. We are totally pleased with the great wall tent and stove. Thanks again." -Barry
