I was wondering just yesterday if one of those car port style tarp doohickies with a propane heater inside would work. Cheap at costco, big and weather resistant.
thats not a bad idea

I wonder if the canvas isn't better at retaining heat....and heavier thus less likely to be blown around.....
...shoot straight and shoot high.......
the car port works great. Use plywood on each end with a wood stove up at the ranch...you can't beat the price and comfort.
use a canvas tarp for roof the tarps for the walls not a one piece tent but all seperate pieces built around a log frame should work pretty good and a lot lighter for boating in back packin in

we had one when I was in search and rescue it was awesome...... we had end walls made up with a door in one. This worked very well, the only draw back was that the poles were very heavy to pack around......1/8" walled PVC pipe might work I guess !!!!!! I was going to get one for my little 14' travel trailer and park it in one end with the other being for a sitting area with a propane heater.
made a 20' out of pvc covered in a tarp. Was nice with 6' walls. They tend to sweat a bit but overall worked fine. Not as nice as the real deal though.

I think they would sweat a lot... condensation dripping on you all night would suck. Yes I'm biased with a vested interest!
