Teepee Tent

I used a teepee tent on two trips, one on Mount Whitney and the other on Mount Shasta. I really did not enjoy it on either hike.

I used it because it was so light in weight but the lack of wind protection and comfort may sideline it for future trips. Camping on the snow in a teepee was really a drag and I missed the cozy feeling you get in a conventional tent. Good tents offer some extra comfort, especially when it's cold and windy.

I may use it again in the summer but only on the right outing.
