How different from trekking tents tents
You have been a camper for years. They know everything about setting up a tent and Sleeping Bag outside. Now you want to expand your outdoor activities on the backpack. All you need is a backpack, you can use the tent you have to use right? Well, maybe. And maybe not. What do you want in a tent, backpack may be different from what you want in a camping tent.
If you have never previously have backpack, chances are They drove up to your campsite in the past. Your biggest concern when choosing a tent was probably size: She wanted to move too much space and save Your equipment. They lifted him up and let it sit for several days while you pursue your camping activities. On a backpacking trip, is to set up your tent packed away and almost every day. For a Backpack Tent, you still want to consider size, but also weight, style and design.
Size. Trekking in smaller tents Sizes. If you are backpacking alone, or you share a tent with someone? A solo backpacker needs only a one-person tent, although many do you choose a two-person tent for additional equipment storage space. Two people can sleep in a two-person tent, but it is a tight fit. A tent for backpackers, with poles, the pause developed into shorter lengths to less space in your backpack.
Weight. A car camper is not much regard to the weight of the tent, but a backpacker, the implementation a tent for many miles. Ten pounds more than a mile is not so bad at the end of the tenth mile, but the tent feels much heavier. Backpacker tents are designed to be as light as possible. A two-person tent should not exceed five or six pounds.
Style. Camping Tents are almost always detached and used on a flat surface are created specially for camping, trekking tents can be found as well in a non-freestanding design. These are usually small and light tents. The disadvantage is that if you are backpacking, you do not always convenient, level surface for the tent. If the ground is too rocky for tent pegs, it is difficult, a tent, the do not stand alone, yet upright. A free-standing Tent Backpack is easier to operate on a hard surface and around the best place, even if he set up is moved.
Design. A tent usually has enough room, big doors, which are easy to move through, and a fly, the rain only the upper part of the tent covering. It can heavier substances in the walls and floor and to build for a person challenging. A backpack tent, on the other side is a simple be set-up tent, because after hiking all day, you will not want to fight with your tent. Due to its space-saving size, there is not much room to move, and You have to crawl through the low door. The rain fly has more of the walls, sometimes even reaching the ground, and often provides a covered porch to protect Transmission, without drawing it in the tent.
Of course, affects each of these considerations, the other, and you must decide your own priorities. Some People backpack to go to camp off the beaten path. Do not wander far and are so willing to bear more weight, more comfort during their time in camp. Other camps, because it travels a long distance. They are more concerned with a certain familiarity with the weight they carry, as he particularly comfortable in the camp. Probably the most common are on the trail of two persons Trekking tents, which come in a wide range of styles, designs and weight. Some of them can even tents, but now you know, is to note the differences.
Regardless of the type of tent you choose, do not buy a cheap tent. Make sure you shop for a tent that will keep the quality, many nights on the route and many days in the pack.
