Suisse Sport Yosemite Tent – Episode 133

is there any tent is that price range that you can back pack with?

There are a lot of lightweight one man tents that are in that price range,

but they're not going to be anything close to the level of something like

the GoLite Eden 1. Wenzel, for example, makes some lightweight backpacking

tents that sell for about $30. I have one, and while it works well in good

weather…it is terrible in the rain. Thus, I rarely bring it with me.

Manufacturer's Note: As Ben recommends, putting a tarp under the tent is great for added protection. We want you to know that our Suisse Sport Yosemite tent has a tubbed floor of heavy duty poly (PE) for weather resistance, designed to keep any moisture out. And the walls are 600mm PU coated taffeta with taped seams. But yes, putting a tarp down under the tent will add another protective layer against the elements, and keep the bottom of the tent clean.

Thanks Dahlia! Important stuff to note, and even more reason to give this

tent the big thumbs up.

Thanks, I really enjoy watching you two. The reviews are fun and helpful.
Hope you can grow! Maybe a company like REI can hire you both to test everything they sell for long hikes/camping.
But keep it real like you are now and folks will keep coming back. You both play off each other well and are sincer but fun.
Love the battle axe and bear chat stuff!

Really appreciate the kind words Kevin. See if you can get somebody at REI

to get in touch with us We will keep on keeping it real, no doubt!!

pretty cool tent..love the ones that come with an e-port

Fo sho Tiff. Great option.

Looking for a new tent my four man tent did not make it over the dec snow storm on the 26. Hope you review more tents and cover how well they can hold up to snow. I guess I am looking for a 6 to 7 man tent. Also another 4 man tent for camping away from base camp. Any more reviews would be great.

Good call Rick. We'll put that on the list of things to review in the

coming year.

The Audio is just terrible. Maybe you should get some better mics.

Maybe so! Sometimes audio is tricky outdoors. What'd ya think about the tent?

Thanks for the video!  I’m looking for a tent, and found this one on Ebay.  It’s not available on Walmart, Target or Amazon online.  I still wanted some opinion of it, though, and this video answered my questions completely!  Great information, and I think my son and I will have a great time camping in our new tent when it gets here!  Thanks, guys! 

That’s great! Glad you found us, and I’m sure the tent will work out well for you and your son.
