    Dave ; you must have been reading my mind. I've been drawing plans for days of a winter canvas hot tent just like what your doing. Did you make this yourself??,,if not who makes these and i would like to know more about your little stove. Anyway looks great.

    Nice set up Dave.

    When you take that, you ought to pack Sandpiper's astro turf for the "icing on the cake".

    I really like it for a car camp set up or if you are on a trek and have porters carrying your gear.

    Four Dog is a stove maker. You may want to check out his titanium model at FourDog.com. A few snowshoe hikers hot camp with pulks especially in the Boundary Waters area of MN.
