[QUOTE="Lost in alamos, post: 1289275, member: 80277"] I went ahead and ordered through tigoat what should be a pretty sweet system. Vertex 5 tent 26.5 ounces. Ordered tan color for desert and mountain hunts. Vent for stove not sure of weight, but it should be minor. Removable vent cover for use with no stove. Small wifi stove with 6 foot of stack. Ordered an extra foot as I have read stove works better the longer the vent is. I can always cut it off. 13 ounces for stove plus 6 ounces for pipe or 19 ounces. I chose the wifi stove so I have the option to do some minor cooking, boil water, etc on top ot the stove with native fuel. This should limit fuel cans etc. I will probably still take the cook stove as a fall back. Total package should be right at 3lbs with stove vent. I also ordered a pole for 20 bucks, but i am confident that a hiking pole or 2 velcroed together will get the job done. Set up of the entire system should be around 15 minutes. Gathering wood for small stove, maybe 30 minutes for a couple days supply. Bone saw should work for firewood. In also picked up one of their ultralight bivys for bugs, not that they are a huge issue where I hunt, but also added water protection for a down sleeping bag. They make a bug door panel option for the tent, but once again i am not concerened in this area and bivy has bug net. 6 ounces for bivy and $60. My thought is is should be a perfect system for solo hunts or 2 people without the stove all the way up to late fall. It should be able to handle snow loads and high winds due to design and simplicity. Nothing better than a place to warm up after a long cold day. All in it is about $700. Cheaper than a plane ticket or an out of state elk tag. I will post some pics when it arrives. They are custom made, so a week or 2 out. [/QUOTE]
