NEMO Equipment - Wagontop 6

Used my nemo 45 nights this past summer, still looks new.

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.

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.

We recently bought a White Duck 13' Regatta Bell. We already have a Nemo 6 person tent that's perfectly good for warm weather camping, but we were looking for something that with a stove jack that would hold up well for a spring/fall snowstorm or two in the mountains. It's not yet the season for it, but we had it up in the backyard for seasoning and we were impressed with the quality of the materials, stitching, zippers, guy lines, etc. IMO it goes up easily. There was plenty of room inside for a stove and our two cots and it has good height. We are going to replace some of the stakes. Half of them are heavy duty, but the other half are the typical cheap, crappy, easily bent stakes. It fits well in the bag, but be warned, it's darned heavy and bulky. My husband loves the entrance pole that gives us something to hang onto while we're taking off our shoes at the doorway. It's much harder getting in and out of our Nemo. The White Duck is such a pleasure in comparison.

Nemo’s warranty is fantastic. They repaired a rainfly for free that I’m pretty sure definitely ripped due to me. They have also helped me out by getting a tent shipped sooner so I could use it on trip.

I got a Nemo and have 0 complaints.

with 200 dollars, find a local REI garage sale. You can get some crazy deals on high dollar tents. some might need some love but if you find a nemo or Big Agnes they will still warranty the tent.
