    I have a swag. :D

    [​IMG]

    It's a single dome, my miss wants to get a double but I ended up making her get a single. I think the idea of coupling in one is cute, but the reality of camping is smelly, dirty etc. just a bit more spacious in your own dome swag. I ended up putting a gym mat in mine and it's still packed with a blanket and my sleeping bag so it's quite fat rolled up. But they're easy to camp it. Just roll it out. You don't the erecting poles really, many times I would just be too drunk and roll it out and climb in. Works good on the back of work Utes. Need a tarp on the ground so the moisture doesn't wet the bottom.

    I think mine cost close to $400 Aus when I bought it. Nobody else in the world knows what you're talking about when you say "swag" and that's backed up google images taking half an hour to even find a picture of what I'm talking about. :D

    They're easy. Much easier than a tent but they're cumbersome and large and difficult to like throw on your back and hike, you wouldn't bother really. But if you know boys with trucks and Utes etc. they are the way to go.

    I would chuck it in my car, drive far away, camp overnight then pack up and hike in places I can't go to just for a day trip :)

    I like the elevated tent I posted.

    My knees are bad. If I get down on the ground, there is no telling when or how I'd ever be able to get back up.


    Actually, hammocks are the way to go.


    $169 (Goofy hunting guy not included).

    Reason I added more padding to my swag was my back was aching laying on the earth. I love you Mother Earth, Nerthus.. But you hurt my back. :D

    We tried cots, back when we were camping alot. I didn't like the hard rails on the side of them. Hammock tents would be perfect.

    I desire to be at either of these places right now rather than getting ready for work.
