Sierra Designs Convert 2 Person Camping Tent

The Convert 2 is a nice two person tent reliable for all seasons. In the big terrain you need to tent that will help campers adapt to the elements. Drizone material blocks the elements and an ingenious system lets you finish building the tent from the inside—a nice option if it's nuking outside. If you're looking to move quickly and go light, then remove the optional vestibule.

Particularly on extended trips or in damp climates, Tent Guard protects a tent if it is packed or stored temporarily while wet — another bit of piece of mind for your customers.
