On Thursday I picked up my first tent at McTrek in Essen. It is lighter than I thought and could transport it in my rucksack. In light of the bad weather I could not deploy it for a little test in the Hallo park here in Stoppenberg. This I would do before I want to test it for a tour for a weekend.
