WTB SnowTrekker Tent and Stove

[GreenFrog]

I'd like to get into hot tent camping and interested in purchasing a snow trekker 8x10 exp basecamp and kni-co packer stove along with a sled and a few other items. Anyone have these items used or similar for sale?

Anyone want to rent me the gear for an outing?

I'm in Northern New Jersey but don't mind a few hours travel for pick-up - especially if in the Adirondack area.

Still looking for a snowtrekker and trying not to buy new.

GreenFrog,

No affiliation but these guys rent one in Algonquin Park:

I was looking into it but am now considering lighter hot tent options.

thx, appreciate the info, that would be great but just a bit too far for me in NJ.
I'd like to make it up that way in the future.
For now, I'm gathering some funds for the full purchase as I haven't had any offers.

this online site rents wall tents for $200

but personally for that price or maybe a little more can find used on cList
i bought a used kodiak tent, used maybe once , near new condition on clist for $300
there are also used military tents can find for cheap
a factor in such tents are the weight,
how do you plan on using it? camping near the car? dragging it?
with tent and poles they usually weigh 70-100 lbs depending on size,

Hunting
Package
Includes:

8" x 10' Wall Tent
Summit Ridge Woodburning
Stove 28" x 16" x 13" OR Light weight Ellis Folding Stove

The 8' x 10' hunting tent rental package is a great cook tent or it's suitable for up to 2 hunters with a stove. It's small, but it's much lighter and easier to heat than our larger canvas wall tents. This is our least expensive tent to ship and is often paired with our lighter weight Ellis Folding Stove.

Interesting. Nice setup..
I'm confident that if I buy I'll get a return on investment very quickly with enjoyable trips. I used to rent a canoe at St. Regis...$40+ a day for a few days..it adds up to the purchase price in no time.. they were great..but I know that having my own will be the more cost effective choice.
