Tent

Trip · 06-29-2010, 09:08 PM

Anyway got any advice for buying a tent?

This is the bag I am thinking of getting:

It's really small and would go on the bike easy.

Thinking of getting this pad for the same reason, Pro Lite Regular:

I been really looking at the MSR Hubba Hubba because of the small pack size and how light it is, but don't really want to pay that price.

Saw this Kelty at Gander that looked to pack up in a small size and was light:

I just bought a swiss gear neisen a few weeks ago. It's a 2 man, but big enough for me and dog. Has 2 doors, 2 vestibules, though not very large. It has a full coverage rain fly, which was important to me. And it was cheap. It also clips 2 of the poles and the center support goes through a sleeve.

But the poles suck. One broke the 2nd time I set it up.

Here it is on the left.

And a stock photo:

I bought one from campers world that had an inflatable pad that fit in the bag with it, was like 175 and it was pretty small, made for backpacking

Yeah, I saw one, one time at this place and it looked good and was interesting.

Details are needed douchebags, like brand and model and such.

Here is the tent I have and always use for backpacking. Really light, easy to set up even when it's dark, pretty cheap.

I would post a tent for trip, but he'd probably get all pissy about it.

Got to a military outlet store. If it's good enough for the military. Its good enough for you.
