    👋 Hi, Do you mind sharing the name of the tent used on Kirk Campsite? I have been using my small backpacking tent for car camping but I would like a more spacious tent for my family of 3. 😊

      Hello! That was The North Face Trailhead 6. We actually don’t use that one anymore in favor of the one in this video: czcams.com/video/T6bKnI8_T-0/video.htmlsi=VYV41RvRfrfgv58p this is the tent: amzn.to/3JjoLmW It’s WAY more spacious and hasn’t been discontinued like the Trailhead has been.
