If you crook or break a pole, most of the camping stores trade replacements or repair kits. A tent with an adequate rain fly : The rainfly is just like your tent's umbrella. The bigger one is much better. Look for a fly that comes very down the sides of the tent rather than just crossways the top. Rain flies are always waterproof. Tent walls are water-repellant. **End Summary** Topics: Summer camping]]> camping tips]]> camping for kids]]> Adventure camping]]> Activities Games]]> Emergency Kit.]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> karthikeyan is an author for Adventure Camping .
