Got two teenagers that I normally bring out for Oct/Nov elk hunt in MT/ID/WY depending on where I can get them tags so usually getting into some weather. My normal setup is to run an f-150 w/ me in the bed and the boys up top on the roof when we are staying mobile and cold camping. So that means gear for 3, and coolers to fit 2 elk typically in the bed underneath my coffin rack. So I’ve got a small utility trailer that I toss an 8x10 wall tent / wood burning stove in so that if we are getting to stay in an area for a couple of days we can setup someplace warm to sleep / dry out in etc. Trying to get a lighter/compact setup than the wall tent that takes up less space and is faster to setup and can have room for a stove, 2-3 cots that I can get the kids in to dry out / warm up and sleep in for the times we can base camp it.
Was looking at the AO series tents…you’ve got igloo, arctic oven and shockey series. So have two sets of questions:
The one person question is because I want to be able to use it when I’m running solo the rest of the year and want to dry out after a few days away from the truck.

- Anyone have experience on the igloo or shockey running 2-3 cots w/ stove ( got any pics? )
- Can the arctic oven / igloo be setup by 1 person effectively? These I suspect are much stouter than the shockey looking at stuff I can find online, the AO being an external frame and the igloo being a heavy duty dome.
