Stability. I'd expect it to puff up unless a window is open.
Also an advantage with the sewn in ground sheet so the wind cant lift it.
I was thinking smaller tents for shorter times with fewer people.
Two weeks is the usual length of hunting trips here.
That's about what most people can get the time off to do. Plenty of time to fill their tags.
Prospectors have quite another agenda. I'll guess that they spend 1/2 their time or more conducting chemical tests on the rock samples.
Exotic metals for the semiconductor industry is big money in this day and time. Not like base metals of 50+ years ago.
There's also some foggy piece of BC legislation about a time limit of 14 days in a single wild camping spot.
We have lots of primitive camp grounds outside the National Park system. At the same time, you can pick your spot on crown land.
Much of the forest edge is so dense that you could pitch a red tent 20' from a logging road and nobody would ever find you.
When we broke camp, as a family, both our 9' x 12' tents had sewn in ground sheets.
My job was to use the broom to sweep the tents out. Factory show-room cleanliness was an impossible dream.
In our coniferous forests, we don't consider there to be much of a risk of widow-maker branches falling down unless the wind is extreme.
Most camps then, in the shelter of the forest, are quite calm, even for small open camp fires.
There are some big patches of tall aspens & cottonwoods in the river bottoms. Nobody even goes for a walk in there on a windy day.
One small thing: the Robens tent color. Ours were dark blue and dark green canvas.
Just about dark in there, mid day in the rain. That beige/sand color will be nice and bright.
