More Prep
So you know how many people you have to sleep, you know what time of year and the most likely weather you will be experiencing and you have some idea of how much money you can afford to spend on a tent.
Now it’s time to go shopping!
My suggestion is to always go bigger then you absolutely need, so if it’s you, your spouse and two children then at a minimum you need an 8 person tent. To me that’s the absolute minimum, I would actually think about buying a 10 or 12 person tent if you have the funds to make sure you have some extra room.
There are lots of places you can go looking for tents, here are a few of my favorites:
REI and Cabella’s are expensive but they only carry the best quality gear you can find. Take your time, compare prices, compare materials, compare size and extras and make sure you find the tent that is best suited for you.
