Just an extra note on how many you can get in a tent....
all depends on how you get along with your fellow tent dwellars!!! Do they snore..smell....etc.

We have had as many as 5 in one of our tents that is 12x17, with a wood stove in the corner. And that is with all 5 being oversized cots (40x85). If all you do is sleep in it, works fine.

What some call "hard work/PITA", others call "times with friends in the outdoors that can never be replaced"!!!
