| Lightwave t30 trek, 2 Skin, 3 Person Tent |
 |
The t30 trek is a spacious three-person tunnel tent designed for backpacking, trekking and camping in most areas and seasons. There is plenty of room to spread out in, making it ideal for extended stays at base camp, or for camping in winter where extra-bulky sleeping bags and clothing seem to take up all the space.
For all its roominess, the t30 trek only weighs 2.6 kg, achieves a good balance of strength and durability, and comes at an affordable price. It is a four-season tent suitable for most climates and regions, although in extreme conditions secure pitching and anchoring are obviously imperative.
