Backpacking Bathtub Floor

In these tents the waterproof fabric in the floor extends up the side tent walls for a few inches.

Backpacking bathtub floor.

Bathtub style flooring prevents rain and moisture from the ground from getting in. A tub floor gets its name from the way the material continues up the walls about six inches before being sewn to the walls. A good tent will have a one piece tub floor which means there are no cross seams connecting the floor material even though floor seams could be sealed they are subject to wear and tear and they would require more frequent re sealing. Some choose to use 2 person tents for extra sleeping space a dog hiking companion or for gear storage.

In other words like a bathtub. Others prefer to hike in tandem and of course need the space for a partner or friend. How about our flat groundsheets. Most double walled camping tents so called because they have an inner tent with bug netting and an outer rain fly have a bathtub floor in the inner tent.

Not a problem for most hikers but worth considering. Whether you normally hike solo or with a partner you will probably want to include the best 2 person backpacking tent to your gear arsenal eventually. Bathtub groundsheets not your thing. Lightweight at just over 5 lbs.

Quick carry easy travel. Our slightly smaller solo bathtub groundsheet is a good fit for those who do not require as much space. Excellent air circulation to prevent it being stuffy at night. This tent is suitable for there season camping so you will get plenty of use out of it to come rain or shine.
