[BARC-List] New Tent

[Richard Amirault]

I've had a similar "tent" for a few years now....very useful. However I
would recommend that we get one that was designed for sidewalls. These
units have a top cover that extends over the sides. Mine was not, and the
top cover does not reach all the way to the sides making it *very* hard to
'weatherproof'.

There are units out now that have walls (and ends!) as accessories...such
as this from CABELAS:

If the url does not work go to www.cabelas.com and search for SUN SHADE
CANOPIES.
