saltcreektent 01 Love Your Inner Green Backcountry Camper With A Recycled Tent

How green can you be if every time you head out to the backcountry for some hiking and camping you take along some normal nylon tent. Isn’t that what your thinking? I know it’s so sad. How dare you use a tent made from some thin nylon fabric. Don’t worry, you can feel better about your self by spending $350 on the Salt Creek 2, recycled tent. A winter cabin for two, you can haul in on your back. It weights just 6.4 pounds and takes less than 2 minute to fully assemble. It’s white because they also skipped dyeing it with toxic colors.

I actually do think this is a pretty cool tent with a very modern black and white color scheme. If you want to make your inner green camper happy for the holidays, buy them this cool tent and kick them out the door for a week and don’t let them back in. That is true love. You can buy the tent online at bigagnes.com

      Maybe I'm missing something here but why do the spaces have to be vehicles if they're sitting indoors? I understand they want to move them outside when the weather's nice but wouldn't it be far more "low-impact living" to have individual spaces indoors (divided with walls, and with one proper kitchen for people to share) and then tents or yurts or something outside, rather than buying massive vehicles, each with their own space heater, shower, stove, toilet, etc., and moving them around 2 x per year?
