That looks more like SE Ok. I think your GPS is off by 4 hrs. Haha If I may - you want a 3 season tent that breathes so you can use it in the hot spring and late summer. Go to REI and learn about them, then buy on EBay. A 4 season tent will not breathe so well. Keep the vent open at night so condensation from your breath doesn’t collect or your tent will be soaked on the inside at sunrise. Warmth comes from your sleep system. Buy a decent air mattress (klymite? $90-100) and a sleep bag for 20-30f temps. I always use a cheap bag liner (keeps the bag from collecting body oils and adds 3-6 degrees of warmth, easily washable). Always go to bed with dry feet and loose; wool socks and loose base layer - think layers. And neck gator is a must if cold. If you afford a better sleeping bag, awesome. Most can’t. Also, the smaller the tent, the warmer. I have an REI one man quarterdome and love it. I also have a Big Agnes Spur (?) 2 man for me and my dog or wife and it is great. Maybe a bit too roomy. Bought both used. If you can afford new - go for it. [good website to learn about gear](https://www.cleverhiker.com/) Don’t over think it and just do it, then adjust. You can hike up the west side of that stream, climb over the ridge and backpack camp on /near the top. Park at the bridge, go upstream with the river on your right, it’s only about a half mile, maybe 3/4. Or for your first time, camp near your car. Good luck
r/CampingandHiking • [deleted by user] ->I have an earlier model of the REI Trailmade 1 (Quarter Dome 1). I’ve found it plenty spacious for one person. With the vestibules, there’s plenty of room for gear. I’m pretty happy with it and it’s been through some pretty intense storms.
r/camping • 1 or 2 Person Tent for me alone? ->This. However, I don’t think they sell the Quarter Domes anymore. I’ve been on many trips and a handful in high winds and torrential downpours. Stayed bone dry. Tight for 2 people, but my younger son and I manage fine.
r/backpacking • Does anyone have 2 person Tent recommendations? ->Yeah, if you must own a tent and have 30 bucks I guess this is for you. But I wouldn't trust the durability of a $23 tent, and I certainly wouldn't use this for backpacking. Generally an REI dome tent is going to be the entry point for a solid backpacking tent.
