HELPFUL, I'm going on a backpacking trip next month and this is really a good video.

[@fairtradefinder1395]

Glad it was helpful!

[@cheefussmith9380]

Looking for a backpacking tent for me and my 2 boys. These are helpful videos thank you.

[@fairtradefinder1395]

Glad it was helpful! Would love to know what you end up picking :)

Will do…analysis paralysis to be honest. I like the tarp tents. Z packs too

[@user-jc8di7rk1f]

So what about Big Agnes spurs ul3 combine with the two tents 😂

[@fairtradefinder1395]

I've heard good things about the Z Packs - although are they as comfortable as other tents? They are amazingly lightweight, but are they are spacious and weather resistant as a NEMO, Big Agnes or North Face ?

Hubba Hubba customer service is terrible and the rain flys leak.

[@fairtradefinder1395]

Thanks for the heads up about the Hubba Hubba! That sounds frustrating.
