The Best Tent for Every Kind of Camper

"Pereira notes that highly specialized adventurers require highly specialized gear to ensure safety and comfort in extreme conditions. “Tents designed for big wall climbers or mountaineers aren't cheap, but a couple hundred bucks is well worth the safety and durability these tents provide,” he says. Porta-ledges—hanging platforms that give climbers room to set up a belay station when a flat surface isn't available—are an adventurous choice. “Multifunctional gear is huge for climbers, and several outfitters produce porta-ledges with tarp systems that serve several purposes for a big climbing objective,” he says. “As for mountaineering tents, these are probably the strongest and most durable tents on the market. They are built for blistering cold and windy alpine conditions.”"
