Selecting a Tent
Fortunately, there are all kinds of tents for weekend car campers, Everest expeditions, and everything in-between. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
Three- and Four-Season Tents
For summer, early fall and late spring outings, choose a three-season tent. At minimum, a quality three season tent will have lightweight aluminum poles, a reinforced floor, durable stitching, and a quality rain-fly. Some three-season tents offer more open-air netting and are more specifically designed for summer backpacking and other activities. Many premium tents will feature pre-sealed, taped seams and a silicone-impregnated rain-fly for enhanced waterproofness.
For winter camping or alpine travel, go with a four season model. Because they typically feature more durable fabric coatings, as well as more poles, four-season tents are designed to handle heavy snowfall and high winds without collapsing. Of course, four-season tents exact a weight penalty of about 10 to 20 percent in trade for their strength and durability. They also tend to be more expensive.
Expect the Worst
In general, it’s wise to choose a tent that’s designed to withstand the worst possible conditions you think you’ll face. For instance, if you’re a summer car camper in a region where weather is predictable, an inexpensive family or all purpose tent will likely do the trick–especially if a vehicle is nearby and you can make a mad dash for safety when bad weather swoops in! If you’re a backpacker, alpine climber or bike explorer, or if you like to car camp in all seasons, you’ll want to take something designed to handle more adversity.

Size Matters
Ask yourself how many people you’d like to fit in your fabric hotel now and in the future. For soloists and minimalists, check out one-person tents. If you’re a mega-minimalist, or if you have your eye on doing some big wall climbs, a waterproof-breathable bivy sack is the ticket. Some bivy sacks feature poles and stake points to give you a little more breathing room. Also, if you don’t need bug protection and you want to save weight, check out open-air shelters.
Families who plan on car camping in good weather can choose from a wide range of jumbo-sized tents that will accommodate all your little ones with room to spare. A wide range of capacities is also available for three- and four-season backpacking and expedition tents. Remember, though, the bigger the tent you buy, the heavier it will be, although it’s easy to break up the tent components among several people in your group. It’s also helpful to compare the volume and floor-space measurements of models you’re considering.
Domes and Tunnels
Tents are broadly categorized into two types, freestanding, which can stand up on their own, and those that must be staked down in order to stand upright. Freestanding tents often incorporate a dome-shaped design, and most four-season tents are constructed this way because a dome leaves no flat spots on the outer surface where snow can collect. Domes are also inherently stronger than any other design. Meanwhile, many three-season models employ a modified dome configuration called a tunnel. These are still freestanding, but they require fewer poles than a dome, use less fabric, and typically have a rectangular floor-plan that offers less storage space than a dome configuration. Many one and two-person tents are not freestanding, but they make up for it by being more lightweight. Because they use fewer poles, they can also be quicker to set up than a dome.

Review by Howard Golbert “Better than I expected!!”
I bought this Eureka Copper Canyon 1512 tent in preparation for an overnight camping trip for a family of 5, including a 1 year old. Of course as soon as it arrived the kids wanted to sleep in it THAT night. Well, it was quite the rainy night – ALL NIGHT LONG, light rain to downpours. After setting it up in the drizzle, and wiping out the inside, this tent remained bone dry all night with the factory taped seams. Water just beads off the fly, outside walls, and storm flaps over the windows. I was very impressed with this aspect of the tent. Although the rainfly does not cover much of the long sides of the tent, as I mentioned before, water just beaded and slid off the fly, and down the sides of the tent.
Ventilation was excellent – I was able to open the tops of the storm flaps on the two windows on opposite short sides, in the pouring rain. The fly over these two windows extends out from the tent far enough to protect these windows from even driving rain. The entire top of the tent is mesh and allowed for plenty of air circulation.
The fly has a great feature (in my opinion) – it has four see-through panels at the peak of the tent which allow you to look through the mesh tent roof, to the sky!! If you prefer not to, the tent itself has a zipper panel that zips over the mesh roof in the areas where the fly has the see-through panels. The fly also has the Eureka! logo watermarked into the the outside surface of the fly.
The quality of the materials is excellent, as I would expect from Eureka!. Zippers work very well, fabrics are substantial, and the size is wonderful. I am 6’6″ and I can stand easily throughout the tent.
The tent setup easily and all the pieces fit together well. I used a 16′x20′ tarp underneath and folded the rest under the tent.
I have not yet used the divider for 2 rooms, the awning, or the included gear loft.
It was obvious to me that a lot of thought went into this tent and it shows in the quality and features. I am looking forward to many years of fun.
Review By Co Camper “Eureka Copper Canyon 1512 – Finally got to use it!”
We just used this tent over 5 days in the Colorado mountains and have nothing but glowing things to say about it. This is lengthy, but hopefully helpful for potential buyers!!SET-UP:
We did a dry run at home when we bought the tent and, including laying out all the hardware and whatnot, it took us about 20 minutes in a mild breeze. At the campsite, it was up in 15 tops. In perfectly calm weather, one person could set this up, but it’s a much easier task with two.
SIZE AND COMFORT:
This is absolutely one of the tents best attributes. The Eureka Copper Canyon 1512 is a true 15′x12′ tent, as advertised. We had a king size air mattress, two blow-up side tables, a 36″ diameter table (with two big heaters on top), the dog’s sleeping crate and two giant hanging shelf systems and had more than enough room to sleep 3 or 4 additional people. Being in this tent is like having a master bedroom while you’re camping – you NEVER need to bend over and the center height of 7′ requires tip-toes to reach (we hung a small lantern and it was a little challenging to get it up there). We lit two Coleman ProCats about an hour before we turned in each night and the tent was a comfy 60º or so by the time we went to bed. The temperatures outside dipped into the 30s by 9:00pm. The entire roof of the tent is mesh (which is why I didn’t have too many reservations about running two propane heaters) and the fly is elevated about 6″ above it allowing for plenty of ventilation. For safety measures, we kept a battery operated carbon monoxide detector next to us.
The rainfly includes a large plastic center section that enables light to shine into the tent during the day; there are nylon windows that can zip open to allow in the light or be closed if you don’t want the light.
The tent comes with a room divider and several other organizers. We did not utilize these as we wanted to take advantage of the entire floor area. We will, however, use these for future camping trips when we take friends or family along.
There are 4 HUGE windows and 2 D-style doors which, when opened together, allow more than adequate ventilation in hot weather. When closed at night, they help retain some heat, although the entire mesh roof enables heat to rapidly escape after the sun sets. As we did, consider a portable heater or two if you’re expecting cold nights.
There are two power ports that enable you to run an extension cord into the tent – one to the left of each door. They zipper open and closed and have nylon flaps over them to prevent water getting in during rain. We didn’t use them, but can appreciate the convenience it would provide for some people.
WEATHER:
Fortunately, the weather was good during our trip. Each afternoon included some wind (maybe up to 30mph) and the tent held strong. We utilized all guy lines (provided with the tent) and staked all loops. We encountered some light rain two afternoons and some heavy rain for a short time one night. No water made it in the tent. Key to this is keeping all items away from the sidewalls, which is made easy by the sheer size and nearly vertical walls of the 1512. We also used a 16′x12′ tarp underneath the tent (folded 1′ underneath) and it worked perfectly.
OVERALL IMPRESSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS:
We love the tent and can’t say enough about it. Each night when we went to bed, we just stared at the ceiling in awe of such a great tent. The quality construction along with the very reasonable price tag makes this tent a real winner in our books.
The only minor gripes
1. Replace the stakes immediately. In fact, when you order the tent (or buy it), just order good stakes at the same time. Don’t wait to even see what they look like. They aren’t sufficient. At all.
2. The tent floor is made of the same nylon as the sidewalls. Use a tarp underneath the tent (ALWAYS, regardless) and consider buying a second for inside the tent. We placed a bath towel right inside the door and took our shoes off each time we entered. It wasn’t bad, but we’ll be getting a tarp for inside.
