Like the title says, I'm looking to get a wall tent and stove for a November hunt this year. There's four of us in our group and none of us really know where to start or what to look for in a Wall tent. Not sure what size we should get either. We've been looking at Cabella's because it's just a short trip over the border and looks like we can save a few hundred dollars there.

Does anyone have experience with the Cabela's Ultimate Alaknak Tent and can tell me if it's worth getting? Here's the link (http://www.cabelas.com/product/Cabelas-Ultimate-Alaknak8482-Tent-150-13-x-27/1570908.uts?Ntk=AllProducts&searchPath=%2Fcatalog%2Fsearch%2F%3FN%3D%26No%3D20 %26Ntk%3DAllProducts%26Ntt%3Dwall%2Btent%2B%26Ntx% 3Dmode%252Bmatchallpartial%26WTz_l%3DHeader%253BSe arch-All%2BProducts%26WTz_st%3D%26WTz_stype%3DSP%26form _state%3DsearchForm%26recordsPerPage%3D20%26search %3Dwall%2Btent%2B%26searchTypeByFilter%3DAllProduc ts%26x%3D0%26y%3D0&Ntt=wall+tent+&WTz_l=Header%3BSearch-All+Products).

Or with this type of stove? Here's the link. (http://www.cabelas.com/product/Camp-Chef-Wall-Tent-Barrel-Stove-Kit/716016.uts?destination=%2Fcatalog%2Fproduct.jsp%3F productId%3D732548&categoryIds=104791680|104757480|104481180|&WTz_l=RI%3BIK-519278)

We all live in the Vancouver area so a trip south of the border is not a big deal. If anyone knows of a more local store or somewhere in Canada with decent shipping that would work too. Thanks for the help guys.

We have 2 of those tents (12x20) and the stoves you have linked to also. We also got the protector for stove jack which is important. We have used them now for 5 years and are very happy with them. They are easy to set up nice and lite and have withstood heavy rain, snow and wind. Another thing which we really like also from Cabelas are the cot tree's which keeps all your cloths and gear off the floor and your cloths always are dry the next day. They are real comfortable for 4 guy's and we have slept up to 6 in the 12x20 no problem. You will be happy with them if you decide to get that one.
