Every time I see one of these for sale, I feel the need to bump it.  10+ years ago I sold my pop-up and went back to 'tent camping'.  With camo-bunk cots, a Camp Chef, and a couple of other little extras, my three kids and I were well outfitted in our 12X12 Alaknak for many years and MANY camping/hunting/fishing trips.  Heavy rain, snow, wind have all been no problem.  Love the Alaknak!  

The vestibule(s) elevates it to a whole additional level as far as space goes.  This would be a great tent for a big family, Kev! ;)

My buddy is selling a Montana 10' x 12' canvas tent.  It comes with a stove which has the water heater attachment.  It has the floor liner as well.  We had a deer hunt in November in Flagstaff, and it was super comfortable, in that thing.  I think he spent closer to 2000 when all said and done.  Looking to get 950 obo.  PM me for details.

Be good to maybe start a different thread on your buddy's tent as opposed to the not so subtle hi-jacking of this dude's attempt to sell his Alaknak.  (I'm assuming no malice on your part, it just seems like bad form, IMO..... )

"Aint got time for dat"....  Too funny!🤣

If they are wet, then YES!   My son borrowed mine once and put it away wet, resulting in some mold that was a bitch to clean.   You will also hear comparisons to canvas with these tents.  Since these are a synthetic, they don't 'breath' like canvas, and tent to gather condensation a bit easier.   Either way, canvas of synthetic, you don't want to put them away wet.

I just always assumed you shouldn’t put any type of tent away wet. 

Great rule of thumb that also applies to horses.

With dew or frost, I wait to break down camp after noon and every thing is dried out. If it's raining or snowing, you have to dry it out at home. I have the kodiak, but I'm sure the same would apply to any tent. Gotta make time for dat.
