Does going on a solo camping expedition sound appealing? No? Well it rarely it does. Maybe after a break up or if you just hate people in general it might sound more appealing. Just kidding (kind of), the solo camping trip can be very beneficial. If you're looking into camping by youself, you will need a one man tent. The
Eureka Solitaire 1 is a fantastic one man, bivy tent. It's light (I like light, especially since I'm pretty lazy) and durable.
Pros
The tent itself is lightweight, not too big, and only $74.99 on Amazon (see link above). While I wouldn't recommend this rent for the multiday backpacking trip or winter camping expedition, it would be perfect for the weekend getaway to the mountains. Setup will take you less than 5 minutes because it is extremely easy to assemble. There is also a small space underneath the full fly outside of the tent to store your gear and keep it safe from the elements.
Cons
The only con is that the tent poles that it comes with are terrible. They are made of plastic. I would advise you to purchase aluminum tent poles to go with this tent. The good news is that it only has two poles, so the extra poles that you might consider purchasing won't be too costly.
Overall, I would give this tent a 4 out of 5 starts.
