Selecting a Tent
Fortunately, there are all kinds of tents for weekend car campers, Everest expeditions, and everything in-between. Here are a few things to keep in mind:

Expect the Worst
In general, it's wise to choose a tent that's designed to withstand the worst possible conditions you think you'll face. For instance, if you're a summer car camper in a region where weather is predictable, an inexpensive family or all purpose tent will likely do the trick--especially if a vehicle is nearby and you can make a mad dash for safety when bad weather swoops in! If you're a backpacker, alpine climber or bike explorer, or if you like to car camp in all seasons, you'll want to take something designed to handle more adversity.

Three- and Four-Season Tents
For summer, early fall and late spring outings, choose a three-season tent. At minimum, a quality three season tent will have lightweight aluminum poles, a reinforced floor, durable stitching, and a quality rain-fly. Some three-season tents offer more open-air netting and are more specifically designed for summer backpacking and other activities. Many premium tents will feature pre-sealed, taped seams and a silicone-impregnated rain-fly for enhanced waterproofness.

For winter camping or alpine travel, go with a four season model. Because they typically feature more durable fabric coatings, as well as more poles, four-season tents are designed to handle heavy snowfall and high winds without collapsing. Of course, four-season tents exact a weight penalty of about 10 to 20 percent in trade for their strength and durability. They also tend to be more expensive.

Domes, Tunnels and Sacks
Tents are broadly categorized into two types, freestanding, which can stand up on their own, and those that must be staked down in order to stand upright. Freestanding tents often incorporate a dome-shaped design, and most four-season tents are constructed this way because a dome leaves no flat spots on the outer surface where snow can collect. Domes are also inherently stronger than any other design. Meanwhile, many three-season models employ a modified dome configuration called a tunnel. These are still freestanding, but they require fewer poles than a dome, use less fabric, and typically have a rectangular floor-plan that offers less storage space than a dome configuration. Many one and two-person tents are not freestanding, but they make up for it by being more lightweight. Because they use fewer poles, they can also be quicker to set up than a dome.

Size Matters
Ask yourself how many people you'd like to fit in your fabric hotel now and in the future. For soloists and minimalists, check out one-person tents. If you're a mega-minimalist, or if you have your eye on doing some big wall climbs, a waterproof-breathable bivy sack is the ticket. Some bivy sacks feature poles and stake points to give you a little more breathing room. Also, if you don't need bug protection and you want to save weight, check out open-air shelters.

Families who plan on car camping in good weather can choose from a wide range of jumbo-sized tents that will accommodate all your little ones with room to spare. A wide range of capacities is also available for three- and four-season backpacking and expedition tents. Remember, though, the bigger the tent you buy, the heavier it will be, although it's easy to break up the tent components among several people in your group. It's also helpful to compare the volume and floor-space measurements of models you're considering.

Customer Review: My Second Coleman Tent
I use this tent for short stays (weekends). My 12 and 10 year old have set it up. We have used it in the rain and wind. I was always dry and comfortable for 3 adults plus their bags. You can put 4 people in it. A 6ft young man also found he had enough room. It is well made with good instructions.

In case you are looking to research for a best summer camp for your child, you would soon figure out that the options are irresistible. Not only are there all kinds of goings-on options, but as well length of stay, price, and lots of other restrictions. Here is a fast general idea of the various types of camp and things to be considered before choosing a summer camp for your child.

This may be your child's first summer adventure camp, if that is so then you require starting by making a choice about how much he or she could manage when it comes to separation. Resident camps, well-known as overnight camps, need the child to spend nights away from resident, and many have a minimum of about 5-7 days that you need to sign in for. Resident camps are an amazing option for sovereign or older kids who desire the full understanding of camps.

Additionally, Day camps are simpler choice for parents and kid, as everyone returns home every by end of the day. Specialty camps could either be resident or day camps, but they are generally focused only on one single event, such as horse riding, soccer, or any other water sports. Specialty camps are a grand option for kids who take pleasure in a specific activity and are uncertain about getting involved in other things.

Before choosing a camp, ask yourself the following questions:

Decide on how much you are willing to pay for the camp. Day camps may cost you about $40 US dollars per day whereas resident summer camps would be double of that amount. On the other hand, specialty camps would be even more expensive, as the people working there are hypothetical to be professionals.

Next match upon the best type of camp your kid would be comfortable with. Would he enjoy sharing a week with the people that is unknown or would he want an alternative? Do you desire your child to have liberty with her schedule or do you prefer an agenda with more structure? One more important when choosing a vocational camp, ensure you confirm safety standards.
