What I Look For When Choosing Hot Tent: Luxe Minipeak XL Pro

I have a few hot tents. Over the years, I have found certain features I like to see and prefer when looking for a new hot tent.
I also showcase the Luxe Mini Peak XL Pro. This was sent to me, per my request, by “Three Ridges Gear Co” to use test out. I requested this tent because it had the features I am looking for. So, all said and done, I really like this tent. However, if this was made from canvas, it would be the ultimate option.

I have owned the Minipeak XL for a few years, and Jim and the fine folks at Three ridges Gear sent me the Pro, I love the addition of the snow skirts ! Nice video ! I’ve done a video using the Minipeak XL Pro, but am waiting for snow to do another, strange winter here in New England ! Cheers

A simple & great design. A very odd winter indeed! MN too.

I also have the Mini Peak XL, I love that tent especially if I’m backpacking in.

@@robpeltonWell I was asking you your opinion on these things and then you made a video, of course I am going to thank you for doing so! I've been going through all the tents and reviews of them and think that I am going to go with the Hercules? I think that it just works best for my personal situations on a two day trip to the river. Plenty of room and a floor. However I am not opposed to others thoughts about it, because I honestly don't know? But it has to be better than sleeping in the truck. ;) I'm getting old now and those day's are coming to an end or else I'll just stay home.

That’s a beast of a tent. Home away from home. I say anything that keeps you outside, go for it. Cheers!

I’ve taken my last pipe section in my stove and drilled about twelve 3/4 in holes in the last six inches of the pipe as my spark arrester something I seen in a old camping book and it works great I use it in my snowtrekker tent and it works great

@robpelton 6 ай бұрын

Interesting. Is the end still just open? Thanks for watching!

@robertfranzen4952 6 ай бұрын

Yes it’s just a normal pipe section it really stops the sparks if you take the time and watch it while it’s burning several years ago I showed many hot tenters at a outdoor gathering held yearly in the fall at a state park and several copied it mostly using a snowtrekker tent. I would love to take credit for it but I read it in an old camping book.

Considered the Onetigris Roar stove but can’t pull the trigger because they don’t have a spark arrester or at least the option to buy one which they don’t. Common Onetigris get with the program! Thanks for sharing Rob!

@robpelton 6 ай бұрын

I found a spark arrestor for it, but I found it really choked out my fire. Now, if needed, I’ll just put a 45° elbow on it. Haven’t had an issue with that combo yet. Otherwise, that stove is a beast. Love it. Thanks for watching!

Great Vid Rob! I have had the MiniPeak XL for a short period of time with the winter Inner tent and love it! I recently saw Craig's @MeetMeOutside review of the full Summer Inner tent and have had that in my Cart at Three Ridges Gear for a couple weeks until today. I pulled the trigger but also picked up the MiniPeak XL Pro with the Summer half Inner tent as well for $20 off. NOTE!!! If you also add the mini tarp made just for the MiniPeak XL Pro it will be $0 if you get the summer package of the MiniPeak XL Pro!! Sweet $99 OFF!!!! Jeff

Oh nice! Great tip! I haven’t watched Craig’s vid yet, but I will. Thanks for watching Jeff!

@ExpeditionaryJonny 6 ай бұрын

Absolutely love this, Rob! I'm interested in hot tent camping, so I really appreciate you passing on your tips. I would not have known to consider any of those things that you listed. That was a really interesting point about sleeping bags & I really like how how you angled the chimney. Keep 'em coming, brother!

Much appreciated! We learn as we go. I try and think of the odd things. Seems to have work so far. Haha. Thanks for watching!

What, besides price, is the benefit of the Minipeak XL PRO over their Sil Hexpeak F6e Winter Shelter SJ? If you add the poles and same inner tents you get 2766 grams with 2,76m2 inner tent living space for €315,11 for the Minipeak over 2676 grams with 2,89m2 inner tent living space for €360,81 for the Hexpeak which design technically is more windproof/weatherproof although it only has one door.

I don’t have any experience with the Hexpeak. I just like that the Minipeak needs fewer stakes to set up and the straight walls creating more usable space. Thanks for the question & for watching!
