Eureka Timberline Outfitter 4 9- by 7-Foot Four-Person Tent

Customer Review: So far, so good
I must say, the assembly instructions were horrendous! However, with a little common sense, one can easily figure out how to put this tent up. Seems like a nice quality and sturdy tent, so far. Perfect size for two people with "stuff."
Customer Review: Best Boy Scout Tent.. Hands Down
I am a Scoutmaster. We have purchased many tents in the past for trials. Mostly Eureka tents but we have some Coleman, North Peak, ect... The last set of tents we purchased were the Eureka Timberline 4 (NOT THE OUTFITTER). This is a HUGE mistake. We camp between 1 - 3 times a month rain or shine, cold or hot. We have two other outfitters that were purchased back in 1988 that are still in full operation. Every other tent (including the regular timberlines from Eureka) just do not hold up to the use we put these things through. The extra heavy flooring that is factory sealed does not allow water in PERIOD. The first time we took the four new ones out that we recently purchased, there was literely a stream of water three feet wide going UNDER the tent. In one night, we had 2.8 inches of rain in a 3 hour period. Not one drop got through the new Eureka Timberline Outfitter 4's Rainfly or door/window zippers. The kids stayed in their tents and I was really suprised that there was not even condensation on the inside of their tents from their breath. HOWEVER, the boys that were in the old Timberline 4's (not the outfitter series) were DRENCHED. We had seamsealed the tents (something for which the outfitters you NEVER have to do) but it still got through because of the rough use we put them through split the seamseal resin We had just applied it in March but had went on 4 campouts since then. I called the company about it, I didn't know that EACH time you put up and take down your tent, you are supposed to seamseal. Anyway, best tent ever made for a Boy Scout Troop or anyone that does a lot of camping. If you need a bigger tent, go with the Timberline Outfitter 6. That is what I use. We fit two adults with cots in it comfortably. The only water that got into it was when I dragged in my drenched body from the rain. Sincerely Owl Patrol Memeber
When they are moving or going on holiday, many people use a fantastic way to carry extra luggage in car top carriers. These devices double the amount of space you have in your trunk by letting you store some of the larger articles and luggage on the roof of the car. There are many different types of car top carriers from roof racks to enclosed box type carriers. Some travellers prefer a waterproof, soft sided carrier over the older hard top carriers. These carriers are made form 100% waterproof vinyl that is guaranteed to be leak proof as well. The sides collapse so there is no danger of scratching or denting the roof of the car.
When it comes to choosing car to carriers, you have to consider how much space you need. When you decide how much room you need, it is better to go a little larger than what you need. Depending on the type you choose, you may or may not need to have a roof rack already installed. Many of the newer carriers on the market do not need anything other than the hardware that is included in the price. They are very easy to install and you do not need to have expensive tools or bring the car into a garage to have the work done.
If you like the style of the car top carriers that are shaped like a box better than the collapsible styles, make sure that the one you choose is made from waterproof material. If you are storing things in the carrier where it doesnt matter whether or not they get wet, then this doesnt really matter.
