If you're looking for a budget tent try the Robens Starlight 2. Great quality and I believe has the best waterproof rating compared to any other brand at that price and some like MSR even higher priced. The vestibule is quite small so if you want more room and don't mind an extra Kg try the Robens Voyager 2ex.

Morning mate. Why did you swap the Abisko for the nortent as looking at the nortent?
@KieCamps 12 күн бұрын
@@bernardscott1783 Hi mate. Main reason was the views from the tent. Vern is amazing for sitting in your inner and looking out into the world. The Abisko is a side view. Secondly i love the look of the Vern. Thirdly it’s a free standing tent so the option to move when erect is a life saver and just contributes to that perfect pitch! There’s many more minor details but those are the main ones 👏🏻

Hi Pal, I wear industrial orange ear plugs when camp, to be honest I wear them every night sleeping next to someone that snores. Anyway that cuts down noise for me. It may have been prudent to double pole your tent in such conditions to prevent too much movement of the tent. I know those who purchased the Vern tents early in 2024 were supplied with thinner poles which have since been upgraded. Even so in the conditions double poling may have been best. Everyone has a different threshold when wild camping. Atb Taff 🤠👊
@KieCamps Ай бұрын
@@Taffwildmanofthewoods I didn’t have the luxury of double poles at this point and I had the new 9.5mm poles in as the tent was bought August this year 👍🏻 Now I have two sets, I can double pole 🕺🏻 Yeah it was just the noise + boredom.
