Customer Review: Pinnacle Pass 2XTA
Nice compact tent, fast & easy to setup. Gave it 4 stars, since the mesh was not exactly perfect. No holes, and it should hold up fine. The tent material and overall quality is top notch.
Customer Review: Worth It!
I bought this tent for kayak camping because of the light weight and it's free standing abilities. It sets up very quickly and easily. Without the fly attached one gets a great view of the stars as well as an airy sleep. The fly provides adequate vestibule space and should provide adequate protection from the rain. I would classify it as a two season tent, as in cold windy weather it might be drafty.


What is more enjoyable than gathering the whole family and spending quality time for a few days outdoors at a campsite at State Park, Missouri for instance. There is no better way to have this kind of opportunity to get connected with Mother Nature to enjoy the scenery, flowers and wildlife.

It is understandable to get excited about your camping trip. However, it is important that you prepare everything beforehand as you may never know what nature has in store for us, be it good or bad.

That is why every camper should have a camping checklist with them before leaving for the great outdoor experience.

Below is the ultimate camper's checklist that has been categorized into the following categories:

  • Personals
  • Camping essentials
  • Camping tent checklist
  • Camp fire
  • Sleeping system
  • First aid kit
  • Clothing
  • Kitchen utensils and gas appliances
  • Children and baby supplies
  • Before leaving home

    10. Before leaving home checklist - lock all doors and windows, turn off all lights and appliances such as television and computer, hold all mail, water the garden, adjust the thermostat and make pet arrangements.

    By no means that the above camp checklist is complete as there are a lot more that are not listed above. Be smart about what you consider necessary to bring and what items can you leave home without.
