Question: I’m buying a new tent and I’m not sure whether I need a 3 or 4 season tent. I occasionally camp in the winter, but most of my trips happen in the summer. Submitted by Allison, Colorado

Anwswer: Most people really only need a 3 season tent unless you are planning on doing expedition type adventures where you will be encountering high winds, heavy snow or extreme weather. 4 season tents also typically weigh more as well – something to think about. Sheri and I recommend that you go for the 3 season tent!
