• Lightweight wall tents made of the highest quality synthetic material available.
• The spike lightweight canvas tent is made of an extremely strong polyester material. 7 oz per square yard makes it approximately twice as strong as most other synthetic tents. The 7 oz polyester testing shows it is also 75% stronger than 10.1 oz canvas.
• The seams have tape to help prevent leaks. However, we still recommend a fly for any tent to protect the roof from UV rays, dirt, and any possible leaks.
• Peak height and tent weight by tent size are shown at the bottom of the page.
• THIS TENT IS THE STRONGEST, MOST REINFORCED, AND BEST LIGHTWEIGHT WALL TENT AVAILABLE.

A Message From Our Owner, Rich

When I designed the lightweight wall tent, I wanted to make it stronger and more durable than other lightweight wall tents.

FIRE RESISTANT: Meets CPAI 84 fire retardant code. If a lightweight canvas tent is not specifically treated for fire resistance, it will burn quickly. Fire-resistant material will only burn when there is a flame source present on the canvas. When you remove the flame source, the synthetic wall tent will stop burning. However, there is no wall tent made that will not burn.

Synthetic Tent Options

• ALUMINUM FRAMES are available. These frames are lightweight to match your lightweight wall tent. Click aluminum frames for pricing. Prices are significantly below competitors'. Aluminum tent frames will ship 2-3 days after purchase.
• STANDARD FLY covers the entire roof and has a 1-foot overhang on each side to force any rain or snow 1 foot away from the roof. Stove jack area cut out and reinforced with webbing to match the stove pipe opening in the tent. Clear poly material - 100% UV protection. Fly has center ridge grommets on each end and grommets along the sides. Includes ropes, tensioners.
• EXTENDED FLY is an 8' extension to the front of a normal fly. Provides a covered area for storage, a shaded area, or a rain barrier if you want to sit outside of your lightweight wall tent during inclement weather.
• FLOOR: Loose synthetic floor. Grommets at corners for staking. The floor does not have a cutout area for the stove. It is best to have a continuous floor to keep bugs and water out when using your stove. Ensure you put non-flammable material under the stove. We have fireproof mats available for $35.
• SEWN-IN SCREEN DOOR: Screen covers the entire width of the lightweight canvas tent. Some companies only provide a 5-6¹ wide screen area. Zippered with ties to tie the back screen door when not needed.
  • Only 2 variations of screen doors are available with our lightweight wall tents:
    • Front screen door, 2 side windows, and back window.
    • Front & Back screen door, 2 side windows, and back door.
• WINDOWS are 30-inch x 30-inch with mesh screens. The flap covers the window when not in use. Zippers on the side of the flap with Velcro top make the window airtight. Side windows are required for any tent that has screen doors, as these tents are pre-made.
• PORCH: Not currently available.
• COOK SHACK: Not currently available.
• SHIPPING BAGS for floors, fly, extended flys, porches, and cook shacks are not large enough to be used for storage bags.
• STOVE JACK LOCATIONS: Front left corner of the roof. 30" from the front door & 30" from the top of the sidewall.

General Information

A FLY IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED

A fly is a special tarp that extends the life expectancy of your lightweight wall tent. Also, there are thousands of needle holes in your tent, and occasionally a needle hole does not close when the tent is wetted down. The only way to ensure your tent does not leak is to put a fly on your tent.

A Message From Our Owner, Rich

It is much cheaper to repair a tent fly than a tent. A tent fly is a must on a synthetic lightweight canvas tent if using a wood stove to prevent possible spark holes. I use a fly on my synthetic tent at all times.

I price my flies approximately 25-50% below my competitors' to encourage individuals to use a fly to protect the roof of their lightweight wall tent.

RECOMMENDATION: ALWAYS KEEP YOUR TENT ROOF AND FLY TAUT SO WATER CAN QUICKLY BE REMOVED FROM YOUR TENT. Water can collect on the roof in an "eave trough," which is a low area just before the sidewall created by a not-tight roof or loose fly. Water collecting in an eave trough will freeze in cold weather and damage your tent.

FLY ADVANTAGES

• SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASES THE LIFE OF THE TENT BY PROTECTING THE ROOF. The roof is the first part of a tent that fails.
• Prevents stove spark burn holes in the roof. It is much easier and cheaper to replace a fly, if necessary, than a lightweight wall tent.
• Provides another moisture barrier to prevent leaks.
• Protects the material from UV rays.
• Keeps the roof clean. When camping under a tree, the tree may rain down dirt during rainstorms.
• Prevents pitch and tar from getting on the roof. Removing tree pitch and tar requires a harsh detergent, which destroys the roof of the lightweight canvas tent.
• Fly provides 1 foot overhang on each side of the tent, carrying water and snow 1 foot away from the side wall.
• Water and snow slide off the fly quicker than a canvas roof, as the fly is completely smooth.
• Provides some insulation value when there is an air gap between the fly and the roof.

TENTS ON PLATFORMS

I strongly recommend you read my recommendations regarding placing wall tents on a platform.

I also recommend tent frame leg supports on platforms that are screwed onto the platform. Wood platforms are smooth surfaces compared to the ground. You don't want to have the tent frame legs slide off a platform during high winds.

ANGLE KITS available (diagram of angle kit above in photo section)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

• LAYAWAY: To lock in special prices for your lightweight wall tent, you can pay 1/4 down and the remaining balance within 6 months. Items will ship when the balance is paid in full.

A Message From Our Owner, Rich

I strongly recommend that you call us at 800-234-1150 or email us if you are just starting to camp. I will be glad to answer any questions you have on synthetic lightweight canvas tents, tent stoves, and angle kits and frames to help you purchase what you really need and want.

• READ MY TENT INFO GUIDES. They provide detailed information on 20 different topics that will assist you in selecting the correct lightweight wall tent model and size to purchase.
• CLICK TESTIMONIALS to read Wilderness testimonials from many satisfied hunters.
• PLAN FOR A TENT STOVE TAKING UP 7' OF SPACE ALONG A WALL. This includes stove and heat standoff distances from the front wall and to a cot.
• PURCHASING ALUMINUM TENT FRAME ANGLE KITS and then purchasing 1-inch inside diameter, thin-walled, aluminum 10 ' sections at a local hardware store can be the most economical approach to purchasing an internal frame. However, check with your local hardware stores about whether aluminum 1" tubing is available and the prices. In many instances, purchasing an aluminum tent frame is most economical.
• MOST LIGHTWEIGHT WALL TENTS SIZES IN STOCK AND READY TO SHIP. No sales tax and free shipping. Idaho residents must pay sales tax. I GUARANTEE THE ABOVE ITEMS WILL SHIP THE NEXT BUSINESS DAY AS LONG AS YOU TELL ME YOU ARE IN A RUSH WHEN YOU ORDER. Sometimes these items can ship the same day if the order is received before 11:00 am Pacific time.
• DETERMINING WHICH TENTS & SIZE TO BUY: The amount of square footage in a lightweight canvas tent increases tremendously when going up one size. Ensure you buy the size that fully meets your requirements. Compare the price difference % between the 2 sizes of lightweight wall tents you are considering vs the % increase in square footage gained by purchasing the larger size. The purchase price % increase will be significantly less than the % square footage increase.
• Stove area requirement in a tent must be considered in all sizes of tents: You must plan on a stove taking up to 7 feet along a wall in all family camping tents. There is an automatic 2 + feet standoff from the front wall due to the stove jack location. The stove itself is normally around 2 feet in length. There is normally a 3-foot heat standoff distance from the stove before you can place a cot or table.
• If you have trouble selecting between 2 different lightweight wall tent sizes, chalk out the different sizes on your driveway and then chalk out stove cots, tables, and any storage areas. Chalk out both sizes of tents side by side to see the significant difference between the two sizes. Hopefully, chalking tent sizes will help you make a decision.
  • One more note: We have never heard anyone say they wish they had purchased a smaller, lightweight canvas tent. The tent area fills up very quickly with all your cots, gear, and stove.
• STOVE PIPE ABOVE RIDGE OF TENT: It is best to have your stove pipe long enough to extend at least 6 -12 inches or more above the tent ridge. Having the stove pipe above the lightweight wall tent ridge allows the wind coming from any direction to blow sparks away from the tent roof, thus reducing the possibility of spark holes being burnt in the roof.
  • If possible, try to position your lightweight canvas tent so the stove jack side is downwind from prevailing winds to reduce the possibility of sparks landing on the roof.
  • To ensure your stove pipe is above the ridge, buy a stove with 8' of stove pipe or buy extra stove pipe. Many stoves only have 6' 6" of pipe. Both our Wilderness stove and Yukon stove have 8' of pipe and have the extra-long 18" legs vs the 12" legs on other stoves.
