Bob was a legend.
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
