What kind of tent is suitable for backpacking sections?
Most three season tents are acceptable for the program. The less screen in the ceiling of the tent the better, as screening will let in spindrift during snowstorms and allow frost on the fly to fall into the tent. The group leaders will coordinate among all participants in backpacking sections and determine who has tents and which ones we will take out with us. If in doubt, bring your tent with you.
