    I really enjoyed the commentary and no hurry of setting up this particular tent model as I am looking in replacing the one my dog ate a few weeks ago. Lesson learned is if putting up a dog run to insure cannot get to tent, I have lost two already to the little lady.

    Great set up video of the Wawona 4. Awesome that you're a fan of Tony and Bruce at ABCamping. I've seen his videos on this tent and the Wawona 6 as well, and also his other videos of camping in the rain. His stuff is awesome indeed. I've purchased the Wawona 6, largely because of Tony's videos and I can't wait to take it camping! So nice to meet you and Buddy!

    FYI, there's a big vestibule available that fits the 4, just learned that today. Got a Wawona 6, yeah, AB Camping, and we've been out in VERY high winds - 45 at Devils Tower, heavy rain and thunderstorms, hail, and Wawona 6 hung in there. We did opt for motel in Cheyenne prediction of 60 mph winds, 5-13" snow, and Gowdy State Park closed. The 6 vestibule really makes it, 4 just wasn't big enough.

    Absolutely spot-on video for what I was looking for. I just bought the green version of this tent today from REI return section so I got mine for a third of the price and the footprint that goes with it. Somebody used it once, I set it up in the middle of REI and couldn't find anything wrong with it except I wasn't sure about that black pole. Thank you so much for telling me that it was bent on purpose. I can hardly wait to use it in my friend's backyard this next weekend! Would love to see how you set up a tarp over that vestibule area as I was thinking the same thing. We'll try to check out the other camping person's videos you talked about as well. Buddy did an excellent job helping you as well! 😊

      @James-2342  2 года назад

      Absolutely The only issue I might mention is that its not a Hike Camping tent as it is heavy weighing in at 13 pounds, so perfect for car camping unless you have a number of people to help carry all the gear. For me and my Buddy Dog we are quite haPPY with the park near where we camp idea. :) I hope you subscribed that way you can see my next video

      @@James-2342 Thanks, James. At 83 years of age I have not backpacked in a long time but I do very much enjoy car camping. For the past 16 years I have camped using my Honda Element as a "hard sided tent". It served me well, but in the past year it was having too many mechanical problems to be reliable. My new car is not suitable as a sleeping unit, so a tent is now necessary. The Wawona seems to be a good choice. Your video demonstration was encouraging. Thank you. I did subscribe to your channel and look forward to more of your videos.

    Great review. I just purchased the Wawona 8. I was looking at the 6 but the 8 was on sale at Moosejaw for $480....I had to jump at that price. I do love this 4 though. For a 4 man tent it is really tall and nice near verticle walls. I am with you, a great one man tent and a dog. It looks like it could handle a normal size cot and have plenty of room for gear. Perfect. I hope to take the 8 out this coming weekend for a maiden voyage. I can't wait. Thanks for your work. BTW....it would have been a nice touch for them to put some small loops on the corners of the side windows so you could guy them out and still be able to use them in a light rain. If we could have a tent designed for all of our desires it would likely cost a fortune. I subbed and liked. 😁

    Really wanted to like this tent, but the vestibule drove me nuts. Having to undo 2 sets of zippers to get in and out became a pain. Zippers also had a propensity to jam. Well made, stand up height great, lots of room. Wish the front had a closure over the mesh so you could leave the vestibule tied up.

    Just watched your video on the Wawona 4. It was the best I seen about this tent! I would like to know if you got a chance to take her out camping during the year and how it performed for you? I thinking of upgrading from my Tetonsports mountain ultra 4 person. (sick of not being able to stand up in that one.) I'm going to be 64 years old this coming year and need more room to stretch . Also, I noticed antenna towers in background of video, are you a armature radio operator? Please post more vid.s with the tent and your dog. This is N9TUZ :)

      CQ CQ Yes as to Amature radio. I have camped in it and love it we both enjoy the size and I too am 64, so the standing room is a must. I have also recently gotten the smaller Stormbreak 3 which is a great tent too but one suited to hike camping, whereas the Wawona 4 is more suited to car camping.
