We upped our tent game last summer.

I was given an Ozark trail 10 person last year and used it once this summer. It's almost offensively large. But an added benefit is it can be turned into 3 "rooms" via privacy curtains and each space has it's own zippered entry. It was nice when we got rained on and 6 people had a dry place to play cards with some elbow room0

My giant ass is 6 foot 4 and I can stand up in the short ends. We got 3 queen air beds in it with room for gear along the walls. Heck of a good deal at 90 dollars. Some people can't get Ozark trail to play nice for them. I must treat mine like spun glass or I get all the good ones

I agree! We got ours on sale end of year 2017 for $85 and it “sleeps” 12. Plenty of room for the 3 kids, the wife, me and the dog + gear. We family camp in state parks so we don’t have to hike the gear very far. We waterproofed it and sealed the seams. So far it has been great. I figure if I can get 2-3 seasons it is worth the money.1

Tent sleep counts are like corona counts for humidors. If it says 12 they mean 8 children or 6 adults and gear. This Christmas I gave a few hammocks as gifts and I look forward to taking a few car campers on a trip like They be never seen this summer. I found a state recreation area in a decent central location and we will do a walk in camp. Might have to whip some of them into shape first0

My setup fits into a backpack. Try not to focus on the face too much, or else I will tend to look like Vin Diesel.

Have to be honest, after 20 years Military and sleeping in tents and wherever we could find. These days my idea of roughing it, is a hotel that doesn't serve breakfast.Logistics cannot win a war, but its absence or inadequacy can cause defeat. FM100-55

Maybe it reflects the sun so he can tan his backside.

When I started camping, I tent camped for many years. Then I moved to a pop up trailer, then a travel trailer and finally a motor home. Now that I am two years older than dirt, it's a hotel with room service!

I used to car camp and tent camp but when I got married we picked up a pop-up tent trailer. Later, when the kids were older I told my wife that there at an age that we could start backpacking and tent camping, but there was no turning back for her, so it's been tent trailer or better ever since.Join us on Zoom vHerf (Meeting # 2619860114 Password vHerf2020 )0

After living in a 12x24 GP canvas tent with 9 other guys for close to 2 years total, my camping now consists of 4 walls, room service and a well stocked bar in the lobby.I'm still troubled by what I did for that Klondike bar...6

2nd annual Enders camp went well. 10 in attendance. 2 in a trailer, 2 in a tent and 6 in hammocks. I was able to borrow 6 kayaks and a paddle board for entertainment. Broke in some new gear and did some top notch cooking. I stayed 4 nights, others stayed two or three.

Boondocked up around the divide and western slope of Colorado this weekend. One night in Cañon City, rented a mountain bike and spent one night in Crested Butte, then rolled over to the black canyon of the gunnison national park for one day and night. Trip timed perfectly to coincide with the aspens turning. Valleys of gold everywhere you looked
crocs and a 1911, proper camp attire
35 degree morning's had me in bed until it warmed up

I know a guy that lived in Gunnison for a while. Never got to visit while he was out there, but his photos were spectacular. So are these.Intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.
I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot. I will smoke anything, though.0 -
Awesome PhotosI was born a fool, and just got bigger!0

Those gold trees look like an incredible sight, thanks for sharing the PictsCigars were made to be smoked, whiskey was made to be drank and women were made to be loved. The only thing I try to age is myself.0

I think I have about a hundred more pictures but these were the best. I have to get back another time and do the north rim of the canyon. There is no access between north and south without driving 2 to 3 hours around the whole canyon system. This is the first of many adventures as I have decided my bucket list is to see all 61 national parks. I hope to squeeze some herfs in on my travels as well as trade smokes for showers. Based on how ripe I was after this 4 day jaunt, I imagine my 10 or 12 day sojourns are going to require hygiene intermissions.3

I hope you make a trip to Chaco Canyon.
