Well I had an afternoon on the beach, and as always have decided to modify this tent slightly. It is really good for use as a day shelter and I did have a heavy rain shower while I was on the beach, so it came in really handy just sitting inside, watching the beach empty of people. I have decided to use the Range tent system, with an A frame outside the tent. The Juno 300 has a loop on the top, so it's easy to just hang the tent from an A frame, this will free up the whole inside. I did try using fibre glass poles set in an arc over the tent, but it was too windy for this method. It could be done using two sets of poles as in a dome tent style, but that would increase the weight I would have to carry. So an A frame looks like the way to go.
I suppose I will have to consider doing something like this with my Peace 800 to clear the inside pole. I'll just have to see what it's like when I have a proper camp in it
------------- Canvas tent, paraffin light, petrol stove. Heaven
I'd rather be kayaking.
Spent up, not pent up, just had my new tent up.
