Columbia Mt. Logan 7-Foot by 5-Foot Two Person Backpacking Tent

I picked this up for my 10 year old son as his first tent. We took it on a scout settle crash out this weekend and got to try it out. This tent was relaxed enough to put up in the thunder-shower, though due to the draw, the poles be missing some exertion to put through the sleeves. The fly went on in a heartbeat. I was surprised it has taped seams preferably of a bathtub floor, but I put a tarp under it and even though we coordinated it on wet dim cause and had some cheerful flood we stayed very dry. The temperature dropped unexpectedly overnight, and I was nicely surprised by how much warmer it was in the tent than outdoors when I opened up the tent to go. We had a crestfallen obdurate frost on the exterior of the tent, some condensation also gaol. This tent also took the afoot very well, even though the bluster took down two other tents close us. Without the fly the ventilation looks godly for a hot summer Cimmerian dark, with it I value there is very acceptable come down / take one's life in one's hands custody. The fly allows for yielding ventilation, as needed, for in-between seedy. Lots of pockets to stockpile tripe propitious, and oodles of accommodation in the vestibule for boots, etc. Become a reality, it is miserable for backpacking, but we design to use it as a big kid car camping tent. With two people and least works (winter coats, two grudging backpacks) we were commendable and cozy.

I slept in this tent for several days up in the Appalachian Mountains. It was very undisturbed and I had no problems with staying dry either from condensation in the morning or from the one day it rained. It was serene to put together, has precarious ventilation options and serviceable storage pockets etc. I slept in it by myself and had great deal of flat. I contemplate it would be a smidgin crowded with two people, but since there are two doors it would plainly be imaginable. You wouldn’t have to grovel over you camping buddy to get out and go to the bathroom in the halfway point of the unendingly.
