![]() ![]() Enough to fit a queen air mattress, a cot/twin air mattress and a few dog beds. Size-wise, I was thinking something along the 70-90sqft area. The dogs are great at camping so I'm not worried about them going through the mesh in search of squirrels or anything like that, but I do want the tent to be durable, especially on the floor, so errant dog nails don't turn the thing into swiss cheese. Occupants: The tent needs to house two adults, a wiggly five year old and three (.yes, three) big (60lbs+) dogs. We won't be camping in gale-force winds or anything, but pacific coast can have 20-30mph wind whip up with little warning. I'm looking for a true 3-season tent that can stand up to rain as well as decent wind. As such, a big requirement is weather durability. Location: We live in the PNW and are expecting to do about 70/30 camping along the coast of southern Washington, Oregon and Northern California, with occasional forays into the Cascades. I hope all of you more knowledgeable folks might help push me in the right direction. ![]() I'd put in some research and finally settled on a tent the Marmot Halo 6.only to discover they are discontinued and am now back at second-guessing between a few choices.
