Found My Tent For Next Years TGO Challenge
Yep I know there is still over three hundred days yet until the Challenge starts. More importantly I haven’t applied yet (can’t until next September) and managed to get selected. So minor obstacles to over come I think you will agree. But it hasn’t stopped me discovering my ideal tent to take on the Challenge with me. Well it doesn’t have to be the Challenge it could be any camping trip really.
So who is making this tent that I want to use? Is it Euro Hike? Terra Nova? Golite? Hilleberg? Nope none of them. It’s Orange!
The following pictures are taken from the Orange Website.
As you can see the tent would save me having to carry around all those batteries and gimmicky solar chargers. It has great big feck off solar panels. It also has wireless internet, which I assume they mean 3G. So the perfect bloggers tent if you ask me. I’m not even going to ask about the weight as I’m sure I can find a friendly beast-of-burden to carry it for me.
