inside pics of 8 and 12 man tipi

[wisam]

Anyone have pics of the inside of either a 12 or 8 man tipi with a stove?

Trying to decide between the two tents. Plan to use it in the winter with 4 people

8 Person with cots, no stove


12 Person


I can try to dig up some more. There are a lot of photos that are in a 12 man or 8 man but not of the said tent.

This is a 12 , ignore the model


Thanks

Here's an 8 man with 3 big cots and a Kifaru med stove.

Another angle.

For winter conditions with a stove and 4 people with gear, I'd suggest the 12. These pics were taken right after we had set up and not all gear was inside yet. We were also camping out of the truck so gear storage was not as bad if on a backpack trip. However, the cots do obviously pull you off the walls more which eats up some of your floor space.

Thanks! Looks like the 12 may be the way to go. We would not use cots so there may save a bit of space since we can sleep closet to the walls but a 12 seems to be a more comfortable option with a group of 4

Any pics with the 12 man and gear?

It's great when customers share photos.
I can setup a 12 and stage it with gear, but I don't really have any good quality interior photos of in use inside with gear. The reason, is usually , it's been dark when everyone has returned to the 12 and pics just don't look good. I can see if I can dig some up from the winter camp in Montana , which was 4 and gear but no guarantees.

Any guess on the size of the 12 man when using the flex pitch option to reduce the interior volume? Would the 12 man be equivalent to an 8 man or bigger/smaller?

Great Pictures. I'm deciding on my first tipi/stove setup. The interior pics will help me decide.
Much easier than trying to envision the layout in my head. Thanks
