    Pickup cab if sleeping for the night and hitting the trail early in the morning

    Otherwise regular camping tent. 4 person for basecamp near truck. 2 person if hiking in.

    I dont go for long enough to be setting up a wall tent. And I have no place to park a tent trailer so I generally dont camp at all when it starts to get below zero during the day (aka November)

    First couple overnight hunts was just a regular tent, then we started using camper on truck followed by one year we tried to use a canadian tire tarp garage as a wall tent and it was poor form, but we liked the space and potential protection it provided so we pooled cash and bought a canvas wall tent the following year. Wall tent is the cat's meow for sure. Although I suspect i'm getting soft after 5 year of 'luxury'.

    Other than the regular tent. All of the above are best suited to be stationary for multiple days. Truck and camper is probably the closest to being convenient for a short stay.

    Find it hard to believe people "camp" in a wall tent. Maybe when hunting but when actually camping?

    I will exclude my travel trailer at my RV site on Kalum Lake, and say that when I "hunt camp" I always stay in my 14x18 wall tent, and to be honest, if there was no woman in my life, it would be wall tent at Kalum as well.
