Bach WickiUp 4 Tent

We're working out what we think - we'll add our view here!

Bach says:

The WICKIUP 4 is a lightweight tipi tent that offers plenty of space and amazing stability even in strong winds. An inner tent with half the surface area (2 people) is also available as an option, which allows the tent to be divided into a cosy sleeping area and spacious vestibule.
