Hello!

Did you have any luck with the Montana front extension on your Yukon River 6? 

 I sent an email to Outwell asking if the Montana 6 extension would fit the Yukon River 6.  Just thought I would share their answer!

"Thank you for your e-mail.

We are unfortunately unable to assist directly as we have not tested our products to fit with each other, but by principle our tents have some common shapes and forms, the size is the only part that is changing and the inside design and some features that in most cases wont change whether it could fit or not.

Therefore we advise you to find out how high and wide your tent is and take a look at our awnings and find one that is 5 cm bigger on both side(10 cm) in width and approx. the same in height. That would be our educated guess, please think carefully about your purchase and see if the tent matches your tent before purchasing the awning, perhaps look into whether there is a side entrance. And look at the drawings depicting how the awning fit the tent and how long it stretches back over the tent.

We wish you a nice day."

Same thought here as well.  I emailed one of the UK dealers and got the following:

" Hi,
It will be very close, it is about 10cm too wide each side, but the top is perfect.
The Yukon was a polycotton tent, this awning is a polyester material, so the material will feel different, the colour won't match perfectly, but it is as close as you

are going to get I think. "

I am really tempted, but I have already splashed out on the extension so I don't think I can justify it.  I wish I could find someone who could just make me a door front for the extension. I saw one of the current Outwell tents at a show recently and it seemed to have a bit that just zipped off leaving half the zip around the front pole. That would be perfect.
