So Im finally going to stop borrowing old cast off tents from random family members and I am going to actually buy my own tent. I cant decide on a backpacking style tent, or the “camping” tent since Im not hugely into one or the other. I backpack and do campstyle camping but I usually always through the tent in the car during the summer since youll never know where you end up. I
s one tent going to be a better than the other for this type of middle stlye?

Taking our gear for a practice hike in Ricketts Glen State Park in preparation for our upcoming extended hike in New Hampshire’s White Mountains . We did a test run with full load out around the Falls Trail on day one and a more leisurely exploration around Adams Falls on day two. We definitely confused some people by hiking this area with our extended trip packs, but it’s better to find out how you can improve your system here than it is when you’re out in the woods on an extended stay (for two of us, this is will be our first backpacking experience).
