Guide Review - Kelty Grand Canyon Family Tent
The Kelty Grand Canyon tents use a sturdy dome design and are easy to set up with their color-coded poles and clip/sleeve construction. With the full rainfly and factory taped seams, you will have ample protection in foul weather. The tent has one large door and a large window in the rear. Couple these with the mesh roof and side wall vents, and this tent gives good ventilation. The interior height of these tents is great: model 9 is 73", and model 11 is 81". The vestibule offers additional space for stowing gear, and it can be raised to make a shaded entry. Other features of this tent include internal storage pockets, gear loft loops, and a storage bag. If you're looking for a quality family tent, consider the Kelty Grand Canyon.
