QR Code Link to This Post
I bought this tent a few years back to go camping in. I injured my back before I could use it. It has only been layed out once to see how big it is. Never been completely setup. I was so disappointed. I am not able to put this tent up now because of my back injury. I have the tent in a sturdy plastic container that is rodent proof. it comes with a wood stove as well. Wood stove has been seasoned It is perfect to use for hunting or fishing trips. Waterproof! This is the description and videos from the website for setup and other details.

The lightweight spike tent is made of an extremely strong polyester material. 7 oz per square yard makes it approximately twice as strong as most other synthetic tents.
The 7 oz polyester testing shows it is also 75% stronger than 10.1 oz canvas.
The lightweight spike tent has a 4' sidewall.
In order to properly secure this tent to the ground, there is a loop for stakes every 4' along the bottom of the sidewall. There will also be a D- ring every 4' along the top of the sidewall.
The seams have tape to help prevent leaks. However, I still recommend a fly for any tent to protect the roof from UV rays, dirt and any possible leaks.

Sewn in floor.

Recommend you read TENT SET UP LOCATIONS before you set up your tent to avoid wind issues that can destroy your tent.
Check website for setup video.
I made long Rebar stakes. Heavy duty to ensure your tent does not blow away in high winds. Remember, your tent is just a large sail if it is not staked securely to the ground.
2 Fire Mats. Fireproof mat for under your stove. Always have a fireproof material under a stove when using a floor in any tent.
FRONT & BACK SCREEN DOORS
Screen door covers entire end of tent to provide more ventilation. Many other spike tents offered on the internet have only a 5-6' wide screen door.
BUG PROOF
Spike tent doors have an inverted T-zipper which makes it totally bug proof when the canvas door is zipped.
All Selkirk SCREEN DOORS have an inverted T screen zipper. Which means the screen door is totally bug proof also when screens are in use.

WILDERNESS HUNTING STOVE FEATURES
12 gauge steel.
Gasket on door for an airtight stove. Controls rate of burn much better. Very few tent wood stoves have a door gasket.
Reinforcement bars welded to both sides, top and back to prevent warping.
Double stove top to help prevent warping. Only heavy-duty stove with this standard feature.
All stove accessories fit inside firebox except wilderness 3 deluxe.
Rain cap with spark arrestor. Prevents rain and snow going into stove pipe. Much better than a cheap wire mesh spark arrestor provided by some other stove dealers. Wire mesh design used by other stove manufacturers is much more prone to having clogged spark arrestor with smoke coming out your stove. Competitor's wire mesh spark arrestors do not have a rain cap allowing rain and snow into top of stove pipe opening.
Warming tray - 26"length x 8"wide, which can fit on either side of stove.
Legs are 18" long. Which makes the stove top 6" higher than other stoves. Easier to cook on and easier to add wood. Also automatically gets your stove pipe 6" higher above tent ridge than other stoves.
5" nesting stove pipe, 7' 8" long - smallest piece fits into next larger size, end of pipe is 6". 6" pipe opening at top of stove pipe allows better draft, especially at higher elevations. Stove pipe is long enough to have pipe about 1-2 feet above most tent ridges to allow wind to blow sparks away from your tent. Most other stoves only have 6' 6 " length of pipe vs our 7' 8".
Baffle plate behind air intake on door prevents any sparks from shooting out the air intake opening into the tent.
Large adjustable air intake on door allows a hotter fire when needed on cold nights. Baffle behind air intake on door prevents any sparks from shooting out the air intake opening into the tent.
Stainless steel 3 gallon water tank - Deluxe model can fit on either side of stove.
Grate, Deluxe Model. Grate should be used for burning coal. Grate can also be used for burning wood as grate allows more air at the bottom of the wood creating a hotter fire.
A 5 1/2" standard oval stove jack will accommodate Wilderness Camp Wood Stoves 5" nesting stove pipe.
