Paha Que Perry Mesa Tent 8-person 3-season One Color, One Size

by Paha Que'

Product Description

On a hot, buggy summer night with a chance of rain or wind (that is, most of them) you want the airiness of a screen room and the protection of a full-wall tent. The Paha Que Perry Mesa 3-Season Tent is an ingeniously versatile mixture of family camping tent and screen room. A mesh roof helps circulate air, and half of the Perry Mesa is a screen room with walls of no-see-um mesh. In case of rain, put cover the mesh roof with the rainfly and drop the screen room doors' awnings. Gear and people stay dry in the screen room, which doubles as a giant vestibule for the tent half of the Perry Mesa. This Paha Que shelter sleeps four to six inside the tent and four in the screen room.

This review is from: Paha Que Perry Mesa Tent 8-person 3-season One Color, One Size (Misc.)

We've owned a Paha Que Perry Mesa tent for 2 years. I know it's expensive, but it's worth it if you camp in all kinds of weather. We camp from April to October in Northeast Ohio and Northwest Pennsylvania, so the tent has stood up to violent thunderstorms, downpours of 3 inches of rain in an hour and we were safe and dry inside.
We love the screen room. The two of us sit comfortably inside. And a third or fourth person would be cozy, but not uncomfortable. On short trips we don't even take our separate screen tent with us. It would be easy to set up a small table to eat on. Our "weekend" site provides electricity and we will cook in the screen room in inclement weather, using an electric grill. A small gas stove would also work.
The one thing a buyer should be aware of is that this tent takes two people and some strength to set up. My wife and I can set it up in about 10 minutes. The set up is very straightforward and simple, but the size of the tent requires two people to get the poles set. Attaching the tent to the bottom of the poles requires some arm strength to pull the grommet over the end of the pole. I'm reasonably in-shape for a sedentary worker at sixty, and can do it fine, but if someone is challenged physically, it would be a tough tent to set up, I think.
