I need some help on ideas for decorating my camping tent?
We camp a lot in a big group. This time around we are having a curb appeal contest. We will be judged on the creativity of decorating our tents making them feel like home and we have to bring the stuff with us. We can not use things from the camp site. I just need some ideas. Keep in mind I my most available power source is batteries and propane.
Definitely bring a couple of cute dishtowels to hang up as curtains in the mesh "window", if your tent has one. (You can "sell" the idea that they are curtains by tying them back with a sash.) Also, look for the plastic lattice segments that people put around flower beds; it will look like a mini picket fence. While you’re at it, a few potted plants and flowers could go in your "yard". Make a "deck" with a few wooden boards (or vinyl imitation boards) and set out a couple of lawn chairs with a plastic table. A couple of fancy-looking drinks with paper umbrellas could brighten that table. A set of horseshoes or bocce balls will make the "lawn" look lived-in.
All of that is relatively cheap, not too heavy or bulky, and won’t need any juice from your batteries. If you want to use something battery-powered, I would get one of those camp lamps that looks like a miniature table lamp, complete with lampshade. Put it on a table inside the tent, where it can be seen through the mesh window.
Where is the best campground for TENT camping in Salida Colorado?
Taking a family camping trip with a tent to Salida CO. We would like to do some fishing, hiking and possibly some horseback riding.
Hecla Junction is a great area to camp near Salida. It is off the main roads and set up against the Arkansas River. The fishing there is great and so is the scenery. It is managed by Colorado State Parks, so there is a fee to stay. The tent pads are large and level. There are also pit toilets which are nice when camping with kids and ladies. If your looking for a whitewater rafting adventure check out the Bighorn Sheep Canyon section of river just downstream of Salida by an hour. It is much more exciting and far less crowded than Browns. It is also great for kids! Have Fun!

Hello, i’m desperate to find set up instructions for an old camping tent?
The tent is for 4-5 people and i had bought it for Canada – Toronto . It’s made by Frikon Industries Ltd and camping Canada. The name of the tent is Riviera and it was made in Chehoslovakia at 1978. Is there anyway i can find the set up instructions (schematics) for this tent or from a similar tent because it’s very difficult for me to set up it ?
