can this tent be put up in snow or can it stand wind?

I got this for my son who is an Eagle Scout. In Boy Scouts they go camping all year long and he has used it in snow and wind.

Haven't used it in the snow but it is rated for it and I've used it in 50mph gusts and as long as all the tie downs are used it will be fine

most likely, it's a great tent but you might need better stakes for snow or high wind. structurally it should be plenty strong.

I have used it camping this year set up on snow and it did fine. No leaks, I do recommend Using a pad or something under your sleeping gear to provide insulation i have also camped in some pretty strong wind and again it did fine. I'm very pleased with my tent. Hope this helps.

Well the poles are arched and smooth but not real thick... As to snow? I would not recommend plus not very wind resistant either, mine lasted about one year then started falling apart! Hope this helps

I owned one for about 5 years. It will not hold up to snow. Rain yes. We had it in the mountains of NC. We used it to have a semi-permanent campsite. It stayed up from April to Nov. There was no problems even after 3 years. One year it snowed a heavy wet snow and it came down. The weight sagged the canvas and buckled the legs. We just replaced the canvas and two legs and used the rest for another couple years.

The tent is pretty sturdy, but not for wet weather. It is easy to take up and set up.

It can stay up all the time, you may be able to keep it up during windstorms I would have to guess under 20mph to 30mph wind provided you anchor it properly to the ground and your Shelterlogic is fully enclosed. I have no idea how it will work with snow as we don't get snow where I live.

Yes, This tent is very stable in a slow wind also. The heating question is up to you,we used electric heaters.

The instructions specifically say that it is a temporary shelter. However I bought mine as permanent shelter for my boat, it's been up for a year now, when it snows, I clean the snow off before it gets too heavy, and it has tolerated 40 mph winds, but in all this will break under severe conditions.

Well for my use it is. There isn't any snow or really harsh weather, so yes for my use it is a four season tent and it is free standing.

Yes, it can handle strong wind. We loved ours in all weather. In fact, ours did well until the snows hit. We got a foot of snow and ours crumples like an accordion. It was about 10 months old. We were very sad to lose it.

It's very comfortable in cold weather and holds up to wind and snow very well. I use a Mr Heater inside and it's quite toasty. Awesome tent.

Not a weather proof tent but most certainly could be used outside. Only flaw we have with it is kids climbing on the outside and breaking the wood poles material is holding up great

I would call this a 3+ season tent. I will stand up to 12'' plus of snow fall, or heavy winds on top of a mountain. I camped with it in - 12 c during elk hunting week long trips with no problems. If you are going camping to alaska in the winter time it may not be the right tent.

Have not camped in snow, but if used with the liner, I really don't see why it wouldn't work for you. It has very wide side door which is a must for getting in and out with your snow clothing. The tub bottom is high off the ground so that's a plus. I've camped in snow in much cheaper tents and they did ok, I am sure this nicer one will not disappoint.

I do not live anyplace where it is going to snow on a camping trip, but based on the size of the poles and the tension that the tent is erected with, I would say it will hold up to snow pretty well.

I have only used this tent in the summer. I have used this tent in some bad rain storms and the tent leaked, we had to use a tarp to keep dry. I wouldn't use this tent in the winter because I think you would freeze your butt off. We had it in early June in the mountains and we got cold.

Not a good tent for windy conditions IMHO. The design is a tall square. It can take wind but dome will be better if you anticipate heavy winds.

It looks great but if you keep it outside in any weather like snow it won't last. Forget any kind of wind.
