"The tent was spacious, fairly easily too set up by 1 person with practice. Fairly waterproof and windproof except the last trip elk hunting. It lasted through one major wind and rain storm followed by two 6in snow falls which melted.

The last wind storm was the doozy which started about 9pm and lasted through about 7am the next morning."

"I bought the Timberline 6 25 years ago from Barney's in Alaska. Every year this tent has been taken on journeys over rough, wet, hot, windy, cold trips, starting with our three kids ages 5, 6, and 7. Now, my grandkids are sleeping in it.

It is roomy, tougher than buffalo hide, and has been forgiving when the maintainance wasn't quite as good as it sould have been (our teenagers taking it on a trip to the pacific coast)."

"Our Scout troop has nine Timberline Outfitter 4s and two Outfitter 6s. We use the 6 for adult leaders. Have slept five before, works great for two with cots for a week at camp. Tents are great. The boys have not damaged any. Wind has bent some poles."

"I have purchased (and returned) an (Eddie Bauer family dome tent -- flimsy zippers, and weak floor) and a (Coleman family 3 room--everyone tripping over the lines and not easy to set up). The Eureka Timberline Outfitter 6 took me 10 minutes to set up (I'm 5'5") and held up well to 6 kids (5-10 years old) romping around inside even if the inflatable mattress did not--the 6 1/2 foot ceiling encourages jumping."

"At nearly 20 lbs it isn't for backpacking, but I very much enjoy having it for canoe-camp, car camp, etc. Tough tent, I trust it to stand up to weather, young boys (6, 9, 10). I typically take lighter tents mountaineering so this is a luxury to have a larger yet every bit as protective tent for trips when weight isn't critical."

"I bought this tent to take along on an Alaska moose hunt. I found out a lot about it during those two weeks on the Tundra. The tent was very roomy with only three of us in it on cots. It was very easy to set up, even the first time. The height was very nice for dressing and getting gear together."

"Dear Sir,

I exchanged my Eureka Lodge for the Timberline 6 Base Camp Outfitter due to the light weight. I purchased the Timberline 6 at the Eureka factory store in N. Y.

I set it up at home and camped out in it. I put my folding Slumberjack cot and a 40 inch folding table in it."

"Eureka quality just can't be beat! This is the second expensive Eureka tent I have bought and it's worth every penny. Easy to setup, easy to take down. Fits nicely into the tent bags. Weather is never a problem. The big zippers even foiled a six year olds attempt to get them jammed."
