The Trapper is a perfectly formed little tent. It's not really a ridge tent in this size but this is the best category for it so it doesn't get lost or bullied by the bigger tents. Made from 285g cotton and incredibly easy and quick to erect this is the perfect tent for those who like to get away for quick weekends or want to pitch camp quickly at a festival - it could house a patrol of scouts too - just as long as they don't all bring the kitchen sink. With a tough sewn in groundsheet to protect the bugs from being trampled to death (and thus being forced to formulate an evil plan and enact a terrible revenge upon your sleeping body) and its light weight of 15kg, this is a tent that won't break either your bank balance or your back.
The picture is of a Trapper II btw - still trying to get a Trapper I pic from the manufacturer!
