There are many different kinds of camping tents available. You just have to know what kind of camping that you intend on doing. If you plan on backpacking then you will want to purchase a lightweight 1 to 2 person tent. If you are taking your family to a campground then a family camping tent for 4 or more people should be adequate. If you are planning on camping during the harsh winter months, then nothing but a 4-season tent will do.

3-season tents are usually made for 1 to 8 people. Sometimes weight is a concern, say for backpackers, and sometimes weight is not a concern, for instance, families. 4-season tents are typically made for rugged conditions and weight is usually a factor as well.

Stormking (2008) 4-Season Expedition Tent

Updated for 2008! Built to endure the nastiest of alpine conditions, the MSR Stormking expedition tent offers incredible strength, durability and rugged, reliable performance. New materials have lightened the weight of the bombproof Stormking by a full pound and a larger vestibule lends greater livability! Five equal-length DAC NSL aluminum poles serve as the sturdy framework for the Stormking. The pole design acts like a spring against the rainfly, increasing rigidity and creating a wide, vaulted ceiling for maximum headroom and floor space. MSR's FastFeed pole sleeves make the tent easy to erect even in deteriorating conditions. The Stormking's adjustable stake loops are backed up against failure by a second set of webbing loops. MSR's DryGuy system accommodates up to a 10mm climbing rope and won't wick, freeze or hold moisture. The glove-friendly DryTie door ties are faster, drier and lighter than toggle/bungee systems. Acknowledging the fact that mountaineers are liable to spend quite a bit of time pinned indoors by the elements, the Stormking employs a truly livable design. A gear loft, interior pockets and stowaway door pockets help avoid clutter and keep gear organized and accessible. A large, hooped vestibule and a smaller second vestibule combine to provide 26 sq. ft. of additional space for gear. The main vestibule serves as a dry transition area from outdoors to indoors. The dual door construction and large zippered side panels provide excellent ventilation. For quick and easy packing, the Stormking comes with MSR's RapidRoll Tent Bag. The bag is generously sized and easy to use. Just roll up the tent and place it in the side-loading bag. Then, use the bag's twin compression straps to cinch it all together. Reflective detailing on the door, roof vent, guylines and zipper pulls make it easier to locate the Stormking when returning to camp in low-light conditions. This detailing also comes in handy for making any necessary adjustments to the tent
