Great report. WCPP is on my bucket list.


As I'm sure you've figured out, it's important to get the stove pipe up and away from the tent. That's why you see most of them with the pipe coming out down low and angled away from the tent, supported by a bipod or tripod. Fewer spark holes that way.

Great trip report. As for repairing your burn holes in the tent I would suggest if they are just small ones(like pin holes)to try using some Tenaciouos tape and seam sealer on them. Just cut a circle of tape and then put a layer of seam sealer on first around the hole and over it some and slap the tape on top. Do this to both sides and it will stay good for quite awhile. Otherwise if they are large holes you need to see about getting some tent material and sewing a patch on and then seam sealing it. I used to work as the Assistant Ranger at our local Boy Scout camp for 15 yrs and during the winter we repaired holes in canvas tents.
