Agreed! Except that if you are over 50, that climb will be longer than 2 seconds I'm sure. I really can't see the lady of the camp going up and down either.
And, they are really expensive, why couldn't you use a good ground tent (probably and build a box and rig any stablizer you might need?...
I finally spent a couple nights in my new (to me) Camping Labs RTT and it was a huge upgrade over the old 1st Gen Mombasa I've had for the last 2 years. The mattress was much more firm, almost uncomfortable at first, but I got used to it and was very happy that my hips didn't sink to the floor, like they did on the old tent. I woke up feeling good, not sore like had happened before in the old tent. This new Camping Labs tent is very nice, the vestibules over the windows and doors add to the setup time, but for the added protection from sun and rain, it was a welcome change. I really like the darker fabric of the newer tent as well, it keeps the light out so much better and actually allows one to sleep in beyond sunrise. The old Mombasa was so light colored, you woke up at first light because it was so bright inside.
All in all, I'm sold on the RTT. I see myself hanging onto the current Camping Labs tent for years to come and using it often.
I feel so sorry for the sucker who bought you old tent. I hear he has a father and sons outing with his 4 year old son in that tent this weekend. I will get some pics of the sucker.
As I've stated many times before, If they made a small enough one, or if I had a larger vehicle, I'd be totally sold on the RTT setup.
Yep, all of us. Cedar in between jami and I and Davy at the foot. Worked pretty well.
Use an anti-theft nut on several of the mounting locations and I think you would be good to go. Quick google search yielded some decent options:
