A Few Things You Need To Know About Indy Camping Tent

By Shirley Olson


Camping is not what it used to be. You can enjoy spending time in nature in one beautiful, spacious and airy Indy camping tent. These lovely tents are available in different sizes, and you can choose the size that is just perfect for you and your family members or friends. But, before that, here are some important tips for you.

First of all, you need to choose the size. It is not so easy as it sounds, and it might be good to visit a store with displayed models before selecting the size. Make sure that it will be enough space not only for you and your friends or family, but also for all your luggage, or even bikes. More experienced campers know what they need, but it could be more difficult for someone new in this.

Larger tent is always more comfortable option for staying there, but heavier to carry around and more expensive. They can have several rooms, or can be divided into several rooms. Some models can even have fold-able additional bedrooms. Choose things that will be useful, for example, wide side doors that will convert into comfortable and useful canopies. There are some models with really useful numerous side pockets.

There is also a choice of two basic types. Classic tents use poles for achieving rigidity and strength, it's a bit more complicated to pitch them, but, on the other hand, they cost less. The inflatable type uses pressured air to give the tent stability, and this type is really simple to pitch. It costs more, but you will be able to pitch it in less than twenty minutes.

Of course, for inflatable types you will need a pump, but it is provided with your tent.furthermore, inflatables are lighter and easier for carrying on your back. The model for four person can have under twelve pounds, while some large models with poles might have over ninety pounds. Heavier models are sometimes hard to manage, especially when all parts are packed in the same bag.

Whatever type you choose, make sure to get one with sewn-in groundsheet. This simple feature will keep away all those nasty bugs, as well as rain. Another option for beginners is choosing tunnel pole tents. In this case there will be no crossings of tent poles, and these types are much easier to set. Furthermore, these types are really lightweight.

The inflatable model of your choice might have only one or more inflation points. These with only one inflation point are easier to pitch, although you still have to take care of all those guy ropes as well. Keep in mind that air chambers of a larger diameter provide additional stability, especially if you are concerned about windy weather in the area.

Different models might also have various hydro static ratings. This is a measure of the water resistance of the material, and the higher the number, the better the resistance. For example, 4000 mm is a quite good resistance for an average tent, but those really high quality models usually have at least 6000 mm when it comes to the hydro-static rating. Higher rating means higher price as well.
