I vote Davis a solid #2

If you’re packing mules a 16x24 might be a weight issue. Might want to get two 14x16’s.

My Davis 14x16 & Eena (Beckel) 9x12 and a Simms stove have worked for decades.

Those were one of the better tents. My brother had a 10x 12 that he finally left with me after hauling it out from PA every year. I sent it back to Eena and had them add another 3 ft panel. That was the perfect size for two people. Also had the Simms fold up stove. I bought the side shelf and extra set of short legs from when I used my military octagon squad tent. When age got the better of me, I sold all my big tents and wood stoves and went to a slid in pop up camper.

Weight wise, I had 16x22 Davis tent. It was a load for a mule. Really heavy if it got wet during the season and took two people load it


If God wanted you to walk and carry things on your back, He would not have invented stirrups and pack saddles
