Kelty Tent User Manuallenovo y510 backpack Upload Your Own Photos | rinella backpackVisit #keltybuilt on Instagramabu backpack nsn Click and Drag to Rotateosrs backpack quest This is my second Kelty tent and we have already used it three times this summer. vip i3 03 laptop backpackLike my other Kelty, the set up and take down gets faster with every use. endura backpack 25lOn one of our trips it poured rain all night long and the Acadia did it's job well, keeping us warm and dry!

The only negative I have to say about the Acadia tent has to do with the poles. As they are not smooth (have an metal connector piece) from time to time the poles can get caught up in the tent sleeves (bunching). Overall, the Acadia is a GREAT tent which I would highly recommend to any of my friends or family. Now I'm the envy of the camp ground with this top of the line tent. No more water no more worries. I like almost everything about this tent. This is my 3rd Kelty, bigger family, tents got bigger too. I also have the 10 day pack from when I used to hike and camp with my friends. Easy set up, Good material, performed will in a couple of storms. 1 Thing that is wrong Made In China.... All my other Kelty equipment is Made In the United States. Set up was easy with minimal assistance. Roomy-placed two large cots inside against the exterior walls. Havent experienced a rain but would recommend the tent. Allow me to gush a bit about the Acadia 6 tent. I just returned from a week long camp(cut short by two days due to the government shutdown)and the tent performed flawlessly!

The first to nights were plagued by HEAVY rains. The second more than the first and boy it was torrential 1-3" overnight. There were three other tents in our party, two owned by me, all were Ozark Trail tents from Wal Mart. They all received substantial amounts of water, but the Acadia 6 had NOT ONE DROP on the inside. The zippers never gave a minutes trouble. The two door design was very handy also. What I liked most was the vestibule that I could stand up in and be out of the rain when entering the tent. The weather was cool but there was a noticeable difference in the tent. It was always comfortable. During the day we could tie back the entryways and get a nice breeze through the tent.It was a breeze to set up and it WILL fold up and FIT into the supplied bag when finished tearing down. This is a great tent. I expect to get many years service from it. Just returned home from 2 weeks camping in my new Acadia 6 tent. I believe its the best tent I've ever owned. We had rain and high winds a few days on the trip and were kept nice and dry thanks to the amazing rain fly and sturdy construction.

6 of the 9 tents camping with us were Kelty. Thank you for a great product. Sign Up for Our eNews Get Easterseals news, resources and more in your inbox.

I’ve volunteered to teach lightweight backpacking at the Cedarland’s High Adventure Scout Reservation in the High Peaks Region of the Adirondacks. I’m headed up there later in the week to be a guest instructor and to do a little backpacking with a scout troop.There’s a huge need to help scouts, parents, and scout masters learn about lightweight backpacking techniques. Kids can’t carry heavy gear because of their size. If they end up carrying a ton of unnecessary gear on a backpacking trip, it won’t be an experience that they’ll ever want to repeat.I was asked by Bill Laymon, the Director of Cedarlands, to come and teach because I let it be known that I’m interested in speaking to youth groups and outdoor organizations about lightweight backpacking. He’s also interested in bringing a lot of new high adventure activities to Cedarlands to expand the skills that visiting troops can acquire there. There are a couple of things I know I want to learn when I’m there, including fly fishing, forestry, and rock climbing.

If you’re a scout, parent, or scout master and you’re interested in learning more about lightweight backpacking and scouting, here are some good online resources I’ve found that can help you out.To start, watch the video here which features Scout Master, Steve Green. He’s got a very watchable series of thirty-thee videos about lightweight backpacking on his web site that you should check out, even if you’re not involved in scouting. I like his emphasis on how to outfit your kids or yourself without a lot of expensive gear. We need more of this in the UL community. Lightweight backpacking does not have to be expensive or exclusive.Doug Prosser, another Scout Master, wrote a great article called Boy Scout Gear List: New Scouts, Three-Season, which is also a great read if you’ve never seen it. Doug is still very active with scouting and has been teaching BSA leaders about lightweight backpacking with Ryan Jordan, who is also involved with scouting.Then finally, there’s a free PDF book about Lightweight Backpacking for Scouts written by Kevin Hauser which is a bit dated (1999) but still has a lot of excellent information in it.
