I've got the optic vue 2.5, and it fits my wife, our small dog and myself very well. There's plenty of room, but it IS a tad on the heavy side for a two person backpacking tent. Car camping? It's great for that. Good quality and pretty cheap, sounds good to me. I would like it if it was capable of pitching fly first incase of rain, but that's impossible without doing some modifications I suppose.

I wanted to say quilts instead of a sleeping bag, but I don't know if that would help you with your cold shoulders. vOv

anatomi posted:Anyone had experience with the Lanshan 2 tent? Seems like a pretty good deal even with import taxes and fees, especially considering the ridiculous prices on outdoor stuff here in Sweden. Sure, I have one. I've had it for about a year now, and I've used it for camping out maybe like 10 nights or so with my wife and small dog. I really like the tent, and it feels like great quality. There's the small issue with some seam-sealing, but as you say that really isn't a big deal. I love the fact that you can open it up entirely on both sides. I haven't used it without the outer tent, but you can do it. (That's what the extra blue line is for) I am 178cm tall, and I don't touch the inner, but if you're a taller person then probably get something longer or lay diagonally in it if you're alone. I've purchased some carbon poles at 125cm length to use with it, when we use it in Denmark, as there's no reason to carry hiking poles when the entire country is flat as a pancake. The 125 cm poles do have the effect of raising the apsis a lot, so if you want to use it in really rough weather, then use hiking poles or shorter poles with it. I made a short video about it. It's in Danish, but I've added english subtitles to it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dZ5S5fHzps

We just stuff the tent in the pack, it'll never fit right if you put it in a stuff sack anyway.

I love the sea to summit aero inflatable pillow. My spouse also.

Their palisades pack is well reviewed. We have the harness it's built upon, and it's a great piece of kit.

Tie them like this, and they won't come undone. https://www.fieggen.com/shoelace/secureknot.htm I've used this knot on everything from combat boots, FiveFingers to my everyday dress shoes for the office, it never comes undone.

I used Hatch Winter Specialist gloves for my time in the army. They were the only gloves that could keep my hands warm. Completely waterproof.

I love my Sea to summit Aeros pillow. My wife loves hers too. They weigh next to nothing and take up very little space. I like how you can adjust the firmness by letting out a little air.

I'm a side-sleeper, and I have the best nights when I sleep in a hammock.

You can get hammocks with built-in bug netting.
