Kamp-Rite

About a month or two ago, somebody was talk'n about the kamp-rite...it might have been Buddha or rossman.....At the time I was look'n for a small tent just for Baja, something that wasn't going to get blown away or flattened out by the wind.

I looked at the kamp-rite...and to be honest I didn't really like it..I thought it was a stupid idea...but did some research on it, and it had pretty good reviews. I wanted a small tent, but couldn't find one that could stand up to the winds for under $500 bucks...or something like that. So I looked on amazon and found a used kamp-rite for about $140 + tax came out to something like $156 bucks.

After having used it for the last trip over to Gonzaga bay...I have to say I love this thing! It stood up to the strongest winds that Gonzaga could dish out. Not only that it held up my fat ass like a champ! Easy to set up, and take down.. just like folding and unfolding a chair, takes up little space (if laid flat). It's a good buy!


I'd have to give it the team sewer stamp of approval!

That is awesome. When I camp up at lake McClure we always sleep on cots under the stars, but there have been windy nights where this would have been a godsend.

Your welcome. I need to find a good inflatable pad for mine next. I actually got kind of deathly sick on the trip after you left but that is another story.

I talked to Jim (Deamon) and he said that he can take it up to you when you get together. If you want it sooner than that let me know.

I am still sick right now, when I am better I will tell you the story and no it wasn't the food.

Thanks Sven,

I didn't have the flu. I got foam dust particles in my lungs from the open foam pads that Lupe had me use. The particles were coming off the pad and I was breathing them in. Not a good idea!

I was coughing constantly and still am in pretty bad shape. I will probably go have a doctor check it out next week if it doesn't get any better.

Costco has some pretty decent self inflating pads. I used one on a concrete floor and was pretty happy with it.
