There are a few key considerations to take into account when choosing a tent. First, think about the size. You want ensure there’s enough space for everyone who will be sleeping in the bed. A larger tent could be the best fit if you’re camping with friends. But if you’re going with only one other person, a smaller tent will be plenty. Then see what it’s constructed of. Waterproof fabric is key to keeping you dry in a downpour. Some tents are even treated with special coatings to make them more water-resistant. Another factor to consider is how simple it is to get up and running. You don’t want to spend hours just trying to figure out how to piece the tent together. When you shop, look for tents with clear instructions and a simple setup process. Last but not least: how much does the tent weigh. If you’ll be hiking to your site, a lighter tent will also be easier to transport. Weight, however, may not matter as much to those who drive to their campsite. Tent: At the end of the day, a good tent should be roomy (it’s your home for two months, after all), durable and easy to put up while being lightweight when you want it to be.
