Answer
The cylinder tent stoves are designed for wall tents with proper venting and heat a tent by radiating heat from it. All the fumes are exhausted out the chimney. A regular walmart type of tent would not work with it. Also using fuel powered heaters in tents are dangerous they produce carbon monoxide gas and burn up oxygene, the combination will kill you. there are plenty of ways to stay warm through proper equipment, insulation and diet here is a link to winter camping info,

How big is a standard tent pad area at a campsite?

Looking to buy a big family tent to use in Colorado. I want a big one, but not bigger than the standard tent pads. They are usually a square level gravel pad with a wooden border. I'm thinking about 12' x 12'. Do you know?
Answer
Most US forest service and state park campgrounds have an area big enough and flat enough to handle any size family tent, I would not worry about that at all. RV parks on the other hand like to squeeze as many folks as possible in their campgrounds and a 12x12 is pushing it. Some campground reservation services will list the recommended tent size for the camp site. Call a few your going to and ask.
