Customer Review: Good tent
I used this tent this weekend and it's a decent tent for the price. I have a queen sized air matress and it pretty much took up the whole tent with about a foot of room on each side. It wasn't windy so I didn't even use the tent stakes, and it didn't rain the night I was camping but it did rain during the day before I set up so the ground was a bit wet. I had no water problems inside the tent. Setup was easy, took about ten minutes by myself. Breaking down was quick and the tent fit easily back in it's case. If I had to buy another one I would get the next size up for a little more room to store your gear.


Camping trailers come in many shapes and sizes with just as many varying prices allowing them to fit within many different budgets. They can serve many different needs but, generally, camping trailers are a mobile "home away from home." Some are a simple motorized home while others have many different features, appliances and comforts of home such as gas supply and sanitary sewer systems, among others.

You can find some camping trailers that have ever luxury and amenity you might desire. The comforts of home could be similar to the comforts of a package holiday on a beach resort, but the cost is going to be quite high. Most of these luxurious models will range from thirty to forty feet long. Some have exterior walls called "slide outs" that can slide out to provide more living space inside the trailer. Or, you could choose a model that is more similar to a van. These versions are referred to as van conversion motor homes. Though these van style ones have some limitations as far as space, they are more reasonably priced and still good for general everyday living.

If you want a compromise between the two models, there is a smaller version of the luxurious thirty to forty feet camping trailers which will likely fit better within your budget. In these models, you will find a bunk over the cab. They typically do not lack the amenities of the larger versions as they usually do not extend longer than thirty feet.

There are still so many different models available in the market today. One model has a folding tent built on a trailer and can be set up quickly. These are a great space saver and very convenient if you want to just park briefly or for the night. Camping trailers still come in a variety of different sizes, with some offering a bedroom with complete cabins inside.

If you choose a larger model, you will probably need to install a towing bar allowing you to pull the fifth wheel trailer which is fairly large and designed for use with pick-ups. These are great alternatives to the traditional trailer because the weight is in the towing vehicle and not on the van.

Before you make the purchase, be sure you find a camping trailer that will meet your camping needs. Do some research and heed to expert advice to make an informed decision and purchase. It will be quite a significant purchase, so you will want to do so with your best judgment.

Coleman Tent Light

Colman Indoor Tent Light
  • Magnet Secures Light Without Harming Tent Material
  • Multi Mountable, Use For Tent, Closet, Shed, Etc
  • Powerful Xenon Bulb
  • Easy On/Off Switch
  • Operates On 4 "AA" Cell Batteries
    Customer Review: Like it a lot
    I like these lights quite a bit. We do not hang them in the middle of the tent, though, so I can't attest to it lighting up a whole tent (plus our tent is big, 15x12). We use these right above where we sleep in the tent for reading, etc. They hold well and don't pull on the tent too much. We use rechargeable batteries in them, too, so I don't know how fast they go through regular batteries, and each takes 4 AA, so rechargeables would be a good idea. And yes, the lights are an oval shape, just as an FYI. They have a rubberized push button on/off on the side and the batteries are easy to put in and take out.
    Customer Review: Tent light...
    The only problem with this order was that it took a little too long to receive.


    Is a Colorado hiking trip in the Rocky Mountains on your horizon? If so, then try these tips to increase your enjoyment.

    Plan A Route

    A Colorado hiking trip begins with plans for where you will be going. When choosing a trail it is important to take into consideration the altitude change and how many miles will be hiked. When looking at the altitude change it is important to realize that the same distance with even a moderate change in altitude will feel much more difficult and take more time than the same distance without much of an altitude change. When determining how many miles to hike, always allow for the slowest person in the party, and err on the side of fewer miles, rather than too many.

    Document Your Route

    Once you have planned a route for your Colorado hiking trip, make sure you write it down. Include dates and times of estimated departure for the trailhead and estimated times of return. Once you have this information written out you can leave it with a friend or family member so that if there is a problem and you do not return on time they can send help out.

    Dress For The Weather

    Colorado hiking is known for its wonderful scenery. It is also known for its dramatic changes in weather, especially at higher altitudes. This means that layered clothing is the best option; where if the day starts out warm shorts and a tee shirt can be worn, but if the day cools off quickly a pair of long pants, a jacket, and a fleece hat can be added. Another good idea is to carry along a rain jacket.

    Bring Snacks And Drinks

    Bringing food is important even if going on a very short hike, and essential if going on a long one. This can be calorie-rich snack foods such as nuts or a candy bar. Even more vital to a safe and enjoyable trip is hydration. This can take the form of water, juice, or sports drinks. Whichever option is chosen make sure that enough is taken so that when thirst kicks in it can be promptly quenched.

    Don't Forget To Slow Down And Enjoy

    Colorado hiking has much to recommend it, including a great variety of plant and animal life. The best way to enjoy these are to take frequent breaks, look around, and see why the Colorado Rocky Mountains are a favorite escape. Bringing a camera and binoculars are fun ways to enjoy the plentiful nature and scenery that is offered.

    Colorado hiking trips are great ways to enjoy the best the state has to offer when it comes to nature and wildlife. Following the above tips can help to make wonderful memories and ultimate enjoyment more likely.
