New "tent"

Well, I bowed to the fam. After our last camping trip, Kathy and Will decided perhaps the 3 of us are too much for the available space. After much deliberation, I decided to experiment with a stand-alone addition. My short list required whatever form that took to be "instant-up". I browsed YouTube for some options that didn't break the bank. The Clam, Venture tent kept making the top of the list so today I drove a ways and picked one up.
A couple hours into it and so far, so good. We are really enjoying the mosquito-free afternoon.
Now to make a fastening system to join it to the trailer...

picked up one last year w/ the side wind panels, love ours, fast & easy...
I have the same. ($179.99 Amazon) Also have the sides with the windows ($29.99 for set of three), when needed. They mainly come in handy for me when I need to set up a portable toilet. Ran into that when the virus shut down some restrooms, but camping was still a go. We had three people in ours this weekend and watched a few movies. I like mine not attached, as to locate it in areas that the T@G can not go.
If there’s skeeters, the Clam is a great option!

We have used the Clam and LOVE it. I also got the side panels for privacy, and it doubles as a changing room for us.
Just purchased a Cabela version of the Clam Shell. Six Panels 13.6' across all enclosing panels included. Used 4 days on OR coast and 4 days near White pass in WA. Great easy set up. We love it. Long package but can be carried in our 4 runner or the 6 wide.
