my new wedge tent
« on: February 21, 2012, 05:48:48 PM »
I set up my new tent today.  It is a (used once) wedge tent, measures 8 x 9 and 6 1/2 tall, it looks brand new.  I put my cot inside and it is plenty roomy.  My old bones need more comfort than I was getting sleeping on blankets under the lean-to, so the lean-to will now become an awning.

I bought the tent and poles for $200 from a friend who was selling off some stuff in order to buy a new rifle.
 
Look for me in my new abode at the Southwestern rendezvous soon.

HUZZA on the price! May want to shorten the poles to get the sod cloth on the ground.

 I recently bought one too and really like it. Mine cost more and isnt as nice. Enjoy!!!
