    I do love me a fire, especially when cold and wet, but I realize a lot of sheep terrain doesn't offer much in the way of firewood.
    Been sitting on the same fence. Instead of rocking 2 1-man tents, switching up to a tipi and stove. Weight wise depending on what system, it balances out.

    My only concern is being up in sheep country sometimes can leave you pretty exposed, not sure how a tipi would hold up to heavy snow or winds.

    Kifaru makes a pretty good pitch on their website. Although most people I follow on the grammer rock the seek outside tipi's and haven't seen anyone complain
