Title: Wall Tent/Stove Rental
Post by The_Beaver on Feb 12th, 2010 at 8:51pm
My winter camping trip to the Bdubs (2/25-2/28) has hit a bit of a snag.

Long story short....we were able to only secure a small wall tent from Piragis--too small for our 5 man crew.  We found another guy in Two Harbors, but he has none available.
We can make the small one work, but would prefer a larger wall tent where all 5 can bunk under one roof.

If any of you know of a place that rents larger wall tents and stoves, please PM me.
Our Wisconsin crew is coming up through Ely....so anywhere along the North Shore is convenient.

Thanks,

The Beaver

Sounds like you're asking for a TARP bailout. Aren't we all?

Soldotna Hardware in Soldotna, AK has them. They are located on the main drag on the Kenai peninsula. They do a great mail order business.   (You need to Login or Register .

Yeah...as I said in my post, was actually looking for a place a little closer to Minnesota than Alaska...but appreciate your help.

No problems here. Mushing forth with the 8 x 10 canvas tent w/stove and a conventional 3 man.

Hell, we'll be so busy pulling fish through the ice we won't get cold anyway.

Just won't be asking old 99 along to light the fire ;)
