NEMO Equipment - Losi 2P

I have an older model they don’t make anymore; the Losi 2P It is pretty great. It has a lot of the dry pitch features offered by more expensive tents like Hilleberg, but at a fraction of the price. They are a really quality brand and I have never had issues in it for over 8 years now.

Meh we have survived plenty of torrential rains in our cheap old eureka tent as well as our giant Walmart pop up tent. Sure they weigh much much more than our Nemo tent but for most camping they’re just fine.

I have a eureka apex 2 that I got 14 years ago. It has been all over the country. They were like $120 new, are pretty well made, and decent pack down size and weight, especially for the price. We replaced it a couple years ago with a Nemo backpacking tent that weighs probably half as much, but cost about 4x as much. Our kid still uses the eureka. Don’t get a big tarp for underneath it. They make footprints specifically made for that. You can get fancy expensive ones but Walmart sells cheap plastic ones that work great and pack down much smaller than a normal tarp. We have used ours the entire time we’ve had the tent and still no holes even after lots of gravel camp pads.

It’s just rain right? You’re not gonna melt right? I would suggest next time use a 2P tent with a drop cloth AND a overhead tarp But all that gear, consider at least 3P tent. I like the Nemo stuff

Nemo tents pack pretty small and are light. The new dragonfly seems like a good option. If it’s just you and another person a 2 person might be more than enough space.

Doesn’t help when you’re on top of the mountain in the pouring rain :) Edit this sounds a bit harsh. NEMO makes good tents I’ve owned a couple. These days I just prefer something a bit heavier.

Nemo makes great tents. i have two, one has been with me since 2012 and still works great. i got another one last year with more room cuz i have more dogs. i like that they sell internal floors to keep dogs from making holes with their paws. i also love how easy they are to set up, and how durable the materials seem to be.

There are a few shelters that use trekking poles as supports. I have a Nemo that’s about the size as a Nalgene bottle.

Thanks sa reco! I just bought Nemo tent, TNF din prefer ko pero mas maganda pala nemo since Lifetime warranty

Legit din sila, Tho wala lang COD

Tent: MSR or Nemo, sleeping bag: Nemo (the lightest warmest I’ve found) knife folding knife I’d use a Swiss army “Ranger” model, if its a folding knife sans that I’d use a fixed blade like a Pathfinder knife shop “scorpion or Kephart” the kephart is my favorite personally. It’s always good to have multiple tools for sure sometimes they fail. Additionally if you’re going to be in any remote areas take 2 ways to make fire whether that’s 2 lighters or a lighter and a ferocerium rod doesn’t matter. Ans water water water, and some way to filter said water. I’ve had situations even near or in towns where I needed water and had some but couldn’t purify it and a metal container of you can canteen or stainless non vacuum single wall water bottle if you have that and fire you’ll have purified water. Enjoy your walk sounds like fun to me

Big Agnes Marmot, Nemo, Naturehike, Durston over Coleman or Kelly every time.
