- Not many people in America have spent as much time as I have living in tipis. I have used the Kifaru tipi alot recently and wanted to share my thoughts and the setup technique on this time tested shelter!
I own the 8 man and have owned the 4 man. You are spot on about sizing . Ligature means quality in my book. Great gear that is worth the bucks. Thanks for the great vid.
Holy *smokes* I learn so much from your videos. I appreciate the consistent and fervently original content. I’m trying my best to avoid your “Alone” updates until I catch up, but your analyses are the informative pearls I clamor to discover after each episode.
Thank you!
Thanks Liam!
Ended up choosing the 8 man Kifaru thanks to Jordans review. I had experience with my buddies sawtooth but this fit my families needs better. This review is on point and yes the tipi and stove are worth the price.
Awesome I’m glad it was helpful and serves the fam well!
Great video! I’ve had one of these for years and you taught me a quicker way to do the set up thank you!
For a quick set up, sturdy material and how light weight the tipi is, may well be worth the cost. Thanks for the great review Jordan
Outstanding video- I can definitely see some advantages to a tipi vs a floored cabin tent I am using now. I would love to wake up to a cozy fire and keep my boots on in the tent! Thank you.
Never seen a collapsible stove like that before, really cool
Oh how I would love to have one of those for Elk season here in Washington. Super jelly!
Awesome! Thanks. Wonder how that would do in the snow.
Excellent video. Thank you. When you come to Alaska you are most welcome into my home and on my land.
Amazing!! Definitely would love to sometime! Where in Alaska are you?

Great video, very helpful!
Well done Jordan 👍
Nice set up.
Well done!
Perfect for hunting trips
For sure
Thanks bub!
Great demo! I like the tent... But out of my price range... :(
Nice demo. How much does the tent weigh (with and without the pole)? How does the stove compare to a titanium stove?

Hey man
The tipi is about 7 lb and I think the stove is about 5.5 lb, just going from memory
"I prefer to cut my hands"
I agree.
Cut um enough and they soon toughen up.
Anyone know if on the attachments for the guy lines, does that connection to the tent fabric feel pretty solid? Over the years I've been pretty disappointed with these points tearing out
You don't ever have to question the toughness of Kifaru gear. I assure you they are solid as it gets.
Cool how big it is when being lightweight. Not many 4 man backpacking tents in general, and this is the only one I have seen you can stand up in. My concern is sleeping on the ground and bugs coming in at the gap you have all way around between the tent and the ground. I suppose you could just make sure you have the tent tighter against the ground. But I wish guys would talk about the risks and concerns of sleeping on the ground and how to mitigate them. Does this have an accessory that allows you to put in a bathtub vapor barrier floor? Seems like it wouldn’t be that hard to make and could be lightweight and suspended in way that prevents it from collecting all of the condensation on the walls. Would also like a little flap of an awning for at least one of the entrances. It would just be a little more weight and more to setup but for me I think it is worth it. You could go in there and stay completely dry and take your boots off and be super cozy and comfortable.
I bet it is super hot when you stand up in there. I have been in a hot tent that was so easy to make too hot, which isn’t a bad thing. Love the idea of hot tents.
There is another guy that used a naturehike tunnel tent that has a large vestibule. He installed himself a stove jack into the vestibule and used a stove that had a nice glass door. Love being able to see the fire. It is so enchanting to watch the fire while it is cold outside.
More Jordan. Share more knowledge and wisdom Jordan! I dig it. You da man.
heh, is there a reason you don't have a small hatchet for the pegs? You sound a bit like Dean Potter, which rules.
I was looking at a canadian piece of canvas for a 20' tipi, over a grand. You gotta cut yer poles each time so it's less mobile than this, less heavy. I like the stove idea.
No, an ax would be helpful 👍. Yes sometimes cutting the poles can be a little bit tedious depending on how often you're moving and such
After watching this video, now I want a tipi. Lol. Where can I buy one?
Haha sorry.. they are from kifaru.net
If I could tip you for this video I would.
Haha, Kifaru makes incredible gear with poor instructions 😆
That's a large stove.
Kifaru . Sorry!
Stove looks Rinky dink. Dont talk about the stove pipe!!!!, maybe ya-'all don't worry about carbon monoxide poisoning.
