Like Jeeps, like football, for that matter, like any sport, camping is an art that may not be understood by everyone. There are those that see camping as an outing of insanity, wondering why an individual would put themselves through cold nights underneath a skimpy fabric roof, trying to sleep on rocks and the cool hard ground.

Yet, for anyone that has fallen crazy about camping as a skill to enjoy nature, a technique to slow life down and appreciate the vastness of a wasteland place, the only question is, “When are we able to go next? For any person asking that question, a small conversation about a 2 man tent, will be an enjoyable tangent.

The camping tent is the central facet of the outing. A good tent improves a person’s communion with nature. A bad tent will sour even the most ardent camper. The first rule in picking the good tent is to realise air movement. Even many solo mountaineers will attest to the truth that a two person tent is the best investment.

This is based on air flow. Where an one man tent will pack light and travel easy, when it is set up, it allows less exchange of heat. In the warmer months, this makes sleeping in one hot and humid. The larger space inside of a twin tent allows for gas exchange, enabling hot stagnant air to flee if you are using a gas cooker.

A tent built for two can also easily sleep 3 folk. It is a tight squeeze, but especially useful in winter months. The general rule for the best environment is the “just right rule. Too much air space permits air to cool within the tent, a wintery nightmare, not sufficient room traps warm air, a summery bad dream. Once the camper has ventured into the arena of two, he will never return, unless, there's a party of 4.
