    Hi

    It appears that some of the camping stores here are going to have Boxing Day or January Stocktake sales.

    I felt in preference to hiring either a tent or rucksack I may take the advantage of these sales.

    Whilst I see many more expensive ones and not wanting to break the bank I was considering a Mantis 2 tent and a Black Wolf Bugaboo 60+10 Litre Rucksack.

    Would very much like to hear from others to what they have used or recommend

    Thanks in advance

    Brian

    Hi,
    The Mantis is a good entry level tent and will do fine. Backpacks are my pet and I wouldn;t get anything less than a Wilderness Equipment, One Planet or a MacPac. Remember its your back and these brands are well worth the extra two hundred bucks over the Black Wolf Bugaboo and they are waterproof without needing a pack cover the Black Wolf isn't.
