    New tents: they all have too much inner screens

    The tadpole is availabe at $550 but it is a single wall tent. uh mine is not. However it is 15 years old and has no mesh at all save the door and has a very generous vestibule. And it is free. I paid under 100 at the North Face outlet in Freeport.

    New tents: they all have too much inner screens

    That Timberline 2 from Campmor seems to be what I had..Breathable nylon canopy the ad states. Who knows if this is really true? I believe it could be worth a shot and return it if it does indeed have mesh and not nylon.

    We are happy to get you started. What makes Maine special is the abundance of uncrowded canoeing areas. But you do have to leave York and Cumberland counties. AKA Massamaine

    Good lakes in Maine for canoe camping?

    If you think you have one its likely outdated. When you start ferreting out the many remote Maine Lakes with access you want to know what is gated or impassable. Get yourself a new one. You really don't want to drive for two hours on a logging road and find the road has been...

    Good lakes in Maine for canoe camping?

    This is such a bizarre question that I wonder 1. Where have you tried? 2. Do you have a Maine Gazeteer ? Its cheap and has all the launches and primitive campsites marked. I could fill up several pages and spend hours on a list. State Parks are the LAST I would think...

    New tents: they all have too much inner screens

    I had one in the 1980 's The only mesh was the doors. The white was a lighter nylon and decidedly not mesh. I also have in the barn a North Face Tadpole 23 No mesh but only one door so its a crawl in The door is at the head end.. Free if I find its still usable.

    New Rhode Island Law Makes Wearing PFD Mandatory for All

    I was doing boat inspections for invasive species at the ramp near me. A truck with a boat on a trailer came speeding down the street. Braked and I noticed there were three kids IN THE BOAT with one adult. The boat was NOT hooked to the winch; the driver backed down the ramp and launched...

    Bag vs barrel

    Barrel person here. Mice chewed through my hung pack once in Algonquin. Since switching to barrels no problem We sometimes have no trees to hang from or really weak spindly only I have a couple of Ostrom harnesses and carrying 30 or 60 liter barrels is comfortable. Ursak is another option but I...
