Yes. I was familiar with the area.

I found out years ago that a six man tent of any kind was actually a two man tent if you really wanted to sleep in it. I live where it's reasonably warm all year and prefer to sleep outside on a cot with bag. Inclement weather I'll put up the tent. A 12'X14' Ozark that I've had for years. Only drawback is it is a bitch to put up while alone.

And you are right about the number of people a tent is advertised to be for. I like a 6 man tent for myself. My wife and i liked one that was advertised to be for 8 men. |

When I hiked the Appalachian Trail I used a two man Eureka with a vestibule. When everything is riding on those two leather Jeeps...at the ends of each ankle...you gotta watch the weight.
