Tent advice

I like a freestanding tent that is supported by the bent poles through sleeves, with no stakes or lines needed. No stakes means you don't have to worry about driving stakes into rocks/roots/concrete-like ground.

No stakes also means you've just bought a barely-aerodynamic, terribly expensive kite.

Yeah.. I've seen the kite effect before. But if you put enough crap in there, it will stay on the ground when you are away..
