Whatever you are willing to put up with, is exactly what you will have.
When your ship comes in. ... make sure you are willing to unload it.
PAYPAL, sucks and I will never use them again. I recommend you do the same.

Great pics. What brand of canvas tent are you using?

The tent was 12x14. I think the tent was made by "the Durango tent company". I will have to clarify that with Bob to be sure. He made a frame out of 1" electrical conduits. Very easy to put up & extremely strong.

It's a 12x14 with 5' side walls. Colorado Tent Company out of Denver. Tarp is just a Home Depot special. CB

Thanks Bob! I will say that this tent makes camping in fowl weather very enjoyable. It is nice to have all the room, the stove & be warm when there is over a foot of snow outside like last year!

Nothing like two buddies getting together and shooting the bull(s).
Great job! Congratulations!

A few days later Bob took his 5x5 with his tried & true 30-06 shooting 180 grain Hornadys. Can't be so, everybody knows a .30-06 or Hornadys won't kill anything. Really nice going by both of you. I haven't been to CO since '03 and can't wait to go back. Could y'all get a vehicle to the camp site or did you pack that wall tent in?

CB and Ironbuck,
Nice job again, glad you didn't get snowed in. I'll get my chance starting Nov 3.

Could y'all get a vehicle to the camp site or did you pack that wall tent in? We were able to drive pretty close to shere we set up camp. We hiked 3-4 miles from there to get to where we hunt. Beanman Snow was no where near as bad as last year during first season, but this is what it looked like on the way down! we got hit the last day with a decent amount of snow. Good luck to you!
