McKinley Tent

[Dwayner]

I've gotta a big 'ole expedition tent that REI used to sell back in the '70's. It's called a McKinley and it's big enough to stand up in and have a barn-dance. (sleeps 4 and their gear!) Actually it's a McKinley 2..more deluxe. Nope, it ain't for sale...yet..but I'm looking for a rainfly for it, and maybe another center pole. If any of you cool cats have such, let's talk. I'd like to rehabilitate this mountaineering classic and put it to use this winter.

 

thanks.

If you strike out, it'd be no big deal to fab. one out of sil nylon. Jim could get the nylon bulk from integral designs.

Hi Dwayner... saw your big ole tent post. I might know about one of those, I'd have to look into it though. It's a complete tent though, wouldn't be any use to the owner without the parts. How much would you pay for this stuff?

I know this forum is old, but i figured its worth a try. I'm looking to buy a McKinley tent, either the original or the 2. Had one until it was stolen a couple years ago and I keep missing it. If anyone is interested in selling, you've got a potential buyer in Seattle who'd love to talk.

All of those posters are diseased and no longer with us.
