Choosing a Tent
Selecting the best tent for you depends on a lot of factors, but primarily it is a question of what type of camping
you most often do. Are you a car camper, someone who drives into a camping spot and sets up right out of the trunk? Or
are you a hiking camper, someone in need of a lightweight and packable tent that can help keep you warm in sub-zero
temperatures? You have to decide.
So as you ponder this question, take a look at a few of these links that offer help on choosing the best tent for you.
They offer a wide range of tent ideas and suggestions for everyone from families and car campers to more hard core
tents for high altitude types. Some of these links are from equipment makers themselves, so obviously be wary of some
prejudice. But overall I think these links are a great way to get started selecting the tent for you.
