Hi All,

Could anyone tip me off if they come across any sites that have the footprint for the Idaho XL in stock ......most seem to be out of stock !

Also can anyone recommend a good type of heater for use on colder nights

Many thanks

why bother paying the high prices for an outwell footprint when you can go to your local diy store and pick up a builders tarpaulin which will fit the footprint of the idaho XL.
We have the XL and just use a builders tarp.

at the end of the day the colour does not matter as it is under the tent and a builders tarp is probably thicker than the outwell footprint.

Tend to agree, just get a tarp and cut to size as reqd.
As regards a heater, we tend to have a pitch with an electric hookup and just use a fan heater.
