|
 |
Product DetailsThe Bibler Bombshelter is a state-of-the-art 4-person/4-season tent with a stormproof design. Aconcagua? Yeah, been there. Everest? Sure, done that. What about gusting winds and four feet of snow? Yep, the Bombshelter can handle that, too. True to its name, this tent is virtually unstoppable in the mountainsor anywhere for that matter. With its state-of-the-art, stormproof design, the Bombshelter sleeps four and weighs in at a scant 8lbs 10.5oz. Four interior poles intersect seven times for maximum strength, and two attached vestibules provide covered entries and room for everyones gear. Four interior mesh pockets offer internal storage space, as well. In warm weather, both front and aft doors can be rolled to the side allowing you to take in the view and increase air circulation. Multiple stakeout loops provide secure anchoring in windy locations. Plus, the Bombshelter is designed to eliminate over 50% of the seamsmaking it stronger, lighter and more waterproof. If youre looking for the ideal team-mountaineering/base camp tent, you simply wont find one thats stronger or lighter than the Bombshelter.Price : $ 799.95  |

Quality? Thankfully, most four-season tents are high-quality. You can't go wrong getting a tent by The North Face, Marmot, Mountain Hardwear or Black Diamond. |
|
Don't Get Too Big! Due to the bulk of winter camping gear, many people get "too large" of a tent. Unless you truly have use for a large tent (due to having more people), it's better to match the tent's size to the number of people. |
|
Smaller Tents Stay Warmer. A smaller tent will stay warmer with the same people in it. Thus, a tent designed for four people (but which has only two people in it), will not be as warm as a two-person tent with two people in it. Yes, it's common sense, but many people forget about it. |
|
Convertible Tents? There are a few four-season winter tents that are known as "convertible tents," working for both three season and four-season uses. These tents are alright for late fall/early spring use where there exists a high probability of winter weather. However, convertible tents are NOT ideal for either intense winter camping OR normal three-season use. |
|
If You Camp in Both Winter And Summer. Instead of getting a convertible tent, it's best to get one dedicated tent for three-season use and another for dedicated four-season use. It's not necessarily anymore expensive, either. |
