When you are ready to spend the night in the wild, you can choose tents, sleeping bags, tarps, snow caves or refuge cabins. The tent is the most common way, because it is easy to erect, rainproof, reusable, and can be erected to any location, and it is windproof, sun-proof, and there is enough space inside for the climber to place the equipment.

The choice of tents depends on their own use, such as summer, non-snow, snow or four seasons; the number of people in the tent; the space you want to have; the weight of the tent; the price you can accept. Manufacturers offer many different combinations of sizes, weights and designs that can be selected as needed.

Whether the tent is single or double-layered, you must understand the waterproof and air permeability of the tent. If it is completely waterproof, the moisture will condense on the inner bill and cause small puddles at the bottom. These moisture are generated by the climber exhaling. It may also wet the sleeping bag.

Cheap single-story tents can only be used at the lower end of the forest and must be fairly ventilated because the single-story tent is completely waterproof and airtight. So it is best to choose a double layer

Tent, the inner account needs to be breathable, and the outer account is a completely waterproof plastic cloth, so the foreign account will still retain the moisture that the inner account reveals. The inner and outer sheets must not touch or stick together because they stick together. The water in the external account will be infiltrated into the internal account, and the external account must completely cover the inner account and the entrance and exit. Sometimes a waterproof cloth can be placed on the bottom layer to prevent moisture from penetrating, keeping the bottom layer clean and increasing the service life.

Different tent designs have different degrees of support. You must consider your own use when purchasing, especially during the snow period.

Lightweight tents should be spacious and sturdy enough to handle some special needs.

Generally, the two-person account is the most commonly used tent, because it is easy to carry, easy to find a camp, and three or a single person can also live.

The color of the tent is best chosen in warm colors such as yellow, orange or red. When you are trapped, conspicuous color can be easily found.

Avoid accidents in the tent, especially stoves that use petrol. This kind of furnace has a pungent odor, is easy to overflow fuel oil, and the firepower is uncontrollable, which is a latent crisis. Especially in the tents of waterproof nylon cloth, there is often a feeling of suffocation. The anecdote will also cause many small water droplets to accumulate in the inner account. If there is a need to do something in the tent, it is best to carry out between the internal and external accounts.
