Shopping for a Family Tent?

Kodiak Canvas Tent Model 6010

As a general rule when shopping for a new tent, get a tent that will accommodate at least one more person than will be using it. For the best weather protection, look for a tent with full rain fly, tub floor, sealed seams and good ventilation.

Do You Take Photos When You Camp?

Friday July 18, 2008
Camping is a great way to share memorable times with family and friends. My wife is best when it comes to taking candid shots when we are on a trip. The campout itself creates lasting memories, but the photos we take help us share those memories with others.

So, do you or anyone you're camping with take photos of the trip? Take the poll and use the photo submission form, if you have a photo that you'd like to include on the Camping Community Photo Gallery.
