    Stove Jack location for SL5

    I would like some help with the Stove Jack location for my SL5. Bought the SL5 last year and it has the newer (at least that's what I understand) vent flaps that have the half moon wire to hold them open. Would prefer the stove to be towards the back of the tent. Any input would be great, thanks.

    Share your no-prep/no-cook meal ideas

    ProBars are my favorite, Prunes, Macadamia nuts. I have blue berry granola breakfast pouch form costco which is fantastic. Foil tuna is simple and clean. I like to add a little Idaho instant potato to MH, if I do go that route.
