Right, we are now 5. And looking for a better tent.
When we were 4 we had a Decathlon pop up 4.2xl. After 8 nights in it I swore I would never again camp in a tent that I had to duck to get into, didn’t have decent headspace inside, and didn’t have a zig or a sig. it’s been retired to an overnighter.
I thought, tunnel tent, maybe? I was then seduced by a Wolf Lake 5. We didn’t get around to buying one, but I loved the general canvas-ness of it. And I don’t love the look of tunnels.
Which brings me to Dutch pyramids. Dave on Facebook says an albatros would be big enough for 5. What do you think? We’ve got 3xDS at 7, 6 and 1. We need space for card games and toy cars if it’s raining.
Also, are they bug proof-ish? In the pics they don’t seem to have mesh doors.
If I buy a second hand one, will I be able to find a varioluifel and storage pouches to fit?
And finally, if I may, what are these side panels people speak of?
Many thanks!!
