For me, a “basecamp” should feel like a headquarters. When I’m staying in one spot for more than three days, I want a wall canvas tent that allows for organization. With vertical walls, you can actually use the perimeter of the tent for storage bins or a camp kitchen setup without losing half your floor space to the slope of the roof. The poly-cotton material also provides much better sound dampening than nylon, so you aren’t woken up by every single leaf that falls on the roof. It’s a much more peaceful experience. If you’re planning a trip where you aren’t moving every single day, the comfort of canvas is unbeatable. It feels solid, looks great in the woods, and provides a level of environmental protection that cheap synthetic alternatives simply cannot match.
