I love my tent!
and my down blankets and pillows. Can't live without them. Along with a few other needed items to make my camping most enjoyable. My space heaters, lamps, electric blanket (sometimes if electric is avaiable, like federal land best though), camp stove, lanterns, air mattress and frame. Shower tent and hot water bag, butane curling iron. I have mastered packing and fit most of our stuff and kids into our vehicle. I have decided backwoods is best saved for day use for me. Many trips we also bring our 5 boys and their friends and tow along at least 13 kayaks. Not as deep in the woods as I used to be, but we are still out in the great outdoors and lovein it. I look at my backpack and smile, far cry from my trips today.
