I'd like to buy myself a tent. It's principally for a couple of reasons:
1. I have a week camping in Faroe Islands next year
2. I'd like to do more of the above!
3. I'd like to do occasional overnights up high in the UK. Something I haven't done in ages.
I have a few things to bear in mind here.
Though I don't necessarily have a set budget in mind, I'm wary of spending too much in case it doesn't get as much use as I anticipate.
I absolutely want it to be very weather proof.
Whilst I'd like it to be as light as possible, I don't want this to be at the expense of weather resistance.
I'd like it to pitch easily, preferably outer first.
Big enough for me and a backpack.
Although I won't need it immediately I've noticed that there are often good discounts on outdoor gear over autumn/winter so might look to buy in next couple of months.
