I'd forgotten about the Chinook! Good call.

I really like/prefer a tent (like the Kifaru or Big Sky) that have an external pole structure that allows the tent body and fly to be erected as one. Snow, and especially rain, aren't able to get into the living space during setup. Great designs.




Maybe I’ve been missing it Brad, but what Kifaru tent are you referring to that offers an external pole system?
