I do not quite understand why the SO tent systems (like the LBO, BS-2, BT-2 etc.) are not any more popular with outdoors folks.

It has the flexibility to go from open forester tarp setup to a fully enclosed tipi with stove and have a bugnet system. I think a lot of it has to do with folks not being able to wrap their brain around the flexibility of the design. To me, it totally outclasses any system out there and it should be considered the new "classic" that replaces the Whelen tarp.

Your pics really show how one can get from one to the other and the modularity of the system. Ya also need a pic with a stove in it and the all the sides zipped in. Heck you need a full video showing how to go from one setup to the other.

Very nice pics!
