Thread: Catch up with an old Mate

You could get a floor for the original Huntecs. I got caught out badly once up the Umukarikari when the weather turned 90 degrees and blasted into the front door. But that aside they were a good light shelter. Part of our hunting culture now.

Mine has a ground sheet I bought with it which is very water proof. That open front can certainly make things a bit drafty.

I took mine for 2 wapiti ballots . roomy , but not very sandfly proof.

This is exactly why I changed by the time you add the ground sheet there's not a lot of difference I just use the outer with a footprint unless I'm going where there's the sandflies
