Heavy Rain Wild Camping in Budget Superlight Hiking Tent. Yep, I Suck at Tension Tents | LanshanPro1
When I said I was hoping to get totally drenched, I meant the tent.. not me & all my stuff haha!
Last time I used this tent in the rain, it let water in the seams because I did a bodge-job of seam-sealing it. So I re-sealed the seams and this time, they didn't let water in, yay! I did however manage to pitch it in such a rubbish way on a slope, that the rain pooled on the outside of the tent, one of the guys came off the peg and a pool of water came flooding into the tent through the mesh. Ooops 😬
My concern is that I often have to pitch on mad terrain, half way up a mountain, on slopes and wonky ground. I don't always have an ideal flat area for a perfect pitch, and it would seem that this tent could pose a hyperthermia risk with a bad pitch
So, I’m struggling to get on with this tent in heavy rain. I LOVE it for its lightness, compactness, as a nice lil bug-free haven in dry weather or light rain. That there’s no poles to snap in the wind & feeling light and bouncy when hiking with it. I'll continue to experiment with it over the summer, when getting wet isn’t likely to become a life-threatening situation
Thanks so much for watching 😊
Filmed & coming next! ...
