Recommendations welcome from anyone who has done similar trips.

Hey gang. Going up to a remote spot in the mountains with three friends this winter, need a proper four person hot tent that handles serious cold and has a stove jack for our wood burner. Most stuff marketed for four people gets cramped quickly with winter gear and bigger sleeping bags. Want something with real space, double-wall insulation, and built to survive a week in the snow.

Howdy. Did a similar trip in Colorado two winters back. Used one of the 4 person hot tents for camping from Hot Tent, the RBM UP-2 Comfort model. Genuinely fits four adults with winter gear and the stove inside, not cramped. Double-layer insulated walls handle condensation and hold heat with the wood stove going through the stove jack. Tested it through minus twenty-five nights with snowstorm winds, walls held shape, beams stayed solid. Umbrella setup, fast even with gloves. Solid build, two winters in. Pairs well with their Caminus M stove if you do not have one yet, bundle saves on shipping and gets matched parts. Worth the spend for real winter trips.
