Abercrombie & Fitch Ideal Cruiser And Explorer Tents

Basic backpacking tent design hasn't changed much in the last 120 years and are still mostly based on the design principles David Abercrombie used for his "Cruiser" tents. Here we update an older video to correct an assumption I had made. We'll be taking this tent to the woods in a few days, so you'll be seeing more of it soon.
