GEN 2 Finally Got The Tent Mounted

[Vegas_Sirk]

Finally got the tent and rack installed and took her out this past weekend for its initial trip. It was all fun and games till I got the tent cover zipper stuck on the tent canvas and like the ******** didn't bring tools to take the tent off. Long story short was a 1-night camping trip instead of 2. Was a 10 min fix at home. Live and learn.

I set up the bed for our Raptor last week. Will use it in two weeks.

Great pic! Are you in the Sawtooths?

We use a RTT, love it, except for when we need to pack up when wet. The entire mattress ends up getting soaked from the wet tent. Nothings perfect.

In my younger days, that tent set up would have been a blast, and actually pretty comfortable. At 64, I need a regular bed and a toilet so I can pee three times a night.

That is a beautiful pic, where is that?

We love our RTT, we’ve had it on the raptor for a year all over northern NV and nearby CA. We’re only in our 40s so hopefully another 20 years of RTT before we have to camp in the ground again ; )

Hopefully you'll have another 20 years of camping on the ground before you camp in the ground.

Yep the Sawtooths. This is near Stanley.

I have yet to experience the wet in the tent, but hopefully its not too bad.
