Tips for Choosing Tent

I hope these tips can help your friends in choosing a tent suitable for mountaineering. 

1. Tent Height 
Tents for mountaineering construction tends to be lower than in the tent for camping, it is mainly to be more resistant to wind faster than a mountain altitude area camping sites located lower on the foot of the mountain. Choose the lower tent construction. 

2. Tent material 
Note the material of nylon tents choose one that do not choose a tent made of cotton material inside (inner) made of cotton, if the tent is used the high mountains of temperate humid will be very cold at all, this tent can not provide good isolation for residents Tent with this type of material suitable only for camping. 

3. Flysheet Sheet 
Tents for climbing the mountain should have its flysheet sheet, except for a single tent tents made of breathable garment that can hold water condensation in the tent but could get out. Bibler tent brands such as output but the value tent with this type of material is very expensive, and most of the Bibler tents are worn in the high snowy mountains. In Indonesia, a lot of tent camping tents that are sold are generally not have a flysheet, once and even if there are short tend to only as decoration, such as tents bestway brands are sold in several stores in jakarta. Flysheet is very useful to protect from the rain inside the tent, flysheet good is that to close the tent until kebawahnya. Avoid wearing camping tents that do not have a flysheet because when used in the mountains with just a tent damp weather tends to the inside will be moist and very bad for the health of climbers in it. 

4. Distance flysheet and inner tent 
Note also the distance between the flysheet and Diding tent, a good distance is one inch because it does not stick to the inside of the tent with flysheet and if heavy rains do not come inside the tent wet by the flysheet, which can cause leaks as well, a good distance between the flysheet and the inside of the tent would allow vapor condensation from inside the tent in the wind therefore hilng is not accommodated in the inside of the flysheet are water proof, if accommodated inside flysheet will turn into points and again falling water gets inside the tent. The situation is what we thought the tent leaked during rain, when his tent was not leaking or perforated at all. 

5. Guylines or strap fasteners 
mountaineering tent would have ropes fasteners particular section which is useful for endurance tent in the face of the wind on the mountain. These ropes generally by the tent factory placed at points of useful tent frame construction provides additional strength pda frame so as not to break. 

6. storage space 
Terrace or the term cool tent vestibule, is a special bonus for mountaineering tent, because in addition can be a place of storage of goods, vestibule can be used as a kitchen when the weather is bad and not allowed to cook outside the tent.
