I don't want to go out the end because I don't want to lose my ability to have a porch setup. I have found the porch to be nice for storing gear, extra wood, etc out of the weather. also better at catching the wind and acting like a parachute, to rip your tent.

I have not had a problem with this...and can't figure it would given the awning is made of a extra long rain fly and isn't attached to the tent.

When I was maybe 4 or 5, 4 families went deer hunting. Or at least the 4 men did. The women and us 10 or 12 kids stayed in camp. We had a huge milsurp wall tent big enough for every one. The guy who owned the tent apparently had a phrase that he liked to hear himself repeat..."into the wind". He convinced everyone that a wall tent should be set up into the wind. It was his tent so he was the expert, right? The next day when the men came back to camp for lunch, they found the 4 wives and the hoard of kids playing around a huge tent spread out over the sagebrush.

Then plan on getting a decent length of 3/8" rebar and using it was a pipe support. Drive it in the ground a foot or so then wire the pipe to it. Why not a T post?

Rebar would be easier to remove if the ground freezes and is lighter.

If you have a handiman jack, one of these t-post pullers will get them out easily.

My tent has doors at both ends. I made my poles and my ridge pole sticks out about a foot on both ends. I wire my chimney to it that comes out from the front side wall. I will probably be selling that tent next summer.
