wedge tents

[mike warner]

I would like to buy a wedge, since it will be only myself. I was thinking about the large wedge from panther, 7x11x7 tall. Is that enough room for 1 and a cot and gear?

Good evening to ya many hats, in my opinion it should be a good size. But i'll tell ya, i bought my 7x9 wedge from rk lodges to do 1812 and fur trade, but now i wish i had bought one with a bell back in it just for more room. I can fit my rope bed, two cots, and my cooler in there. When i started to rondy, nobody else wanted to, now my cousin and one of my boys like to go. Just tellin ya that for maybe future refference.

I would think so but it depends on how much gear you want to have with you. Many get by with a smaller tent but it is nice to be able to stand up inside.

Just add an awning later if you need to .

It is big enough for 1. I camped in a 7'deep x 8'wide x 6'4"tall wedge with a 6' fly easily. Had one of those "Chinese" Army cots (Walmart sells them) that fit crosswise in the back. Plenty of room to store my stuff & change clothes. Definitely too small for 2 people though.

I think it's enough. Here's the inside of my tent which is close to the dimensions you're looking for. It should give you an idea if it's enough room for you.

My 2 cents.... 1) the wedge size stated will be plenty big enough... 2) get 2 doors front and back for venting on hot days and you can also set it up as an open baker style if need be. Also recommend you check out Crazy Crow; http://www.crazycrow.com/mm5/merch...arch_Begin_Only=&sort=&range_low=&range_high=
Good luck pard... Happy camping.

I use a 9x9x7 A frame with a stove pipe hole in the rear. It sleeps 2 on cots comfortably. I also have added on a 9x10x7 wall tent as my living quarters and work area as company cook.

We had 2 wedges set up here with a common dining fly. Both wedges are of the 1812 variety.

I have often thought that the setup shown - two tents with a common fly - was a great one for a small group. :thumbsup:
