First post here.

Curious if anyone knows if a vestibule for a Cabelas Alaknak vestibule can be made to fit a Cabelas Big Horn II/III tent?
I know they are not a direct fit but wondering if anyone has ever tried this? They quit selling the Big Horn model a while ago and I foolishly did not buy a vestibule back when they were available. They still sell the Alakanak vestibule and they appear reasonably similar.

Alternatively, if anyone knows of a Big Horn vestibule that anyone would sell, that would be great!

I'll post a WTB in the classifieds once I get enough posts.
 
I have both tents with vestibules, but with the weather isn’t the best here right now. If there is a good window and I have the time I will set up the Big horn and try the Alaknak vestibule. When I do set it up I’ll take some pictures of how it sets up, and send to you. Fair warning, this might not be as soon as you would like.

Hey I really appreciate that!
I'm not in a big rush so it's all good!!

BTW which tent do you prefer?
Given the lack of vestibule I've considered selling the Bighorn and picking up a good condition used Alaknak tent which i see for sale locally somewhat regularly.
One thing I think I may not like about the Alaknak is it appears the poles only break down to 4ft, which isn't ideal for packing on a horse.
