Kelty Salida Tent

Yes, it fits four people, but it will be a snug fit. If you are using four standard sleeping pads, you will be shoulder-to-shoulder, so it is best suited for groups who don't mind close quarters or for three people who want a bit more extra room.

It is very straightforward. The tent uses a free-standing design with color-coded clips that make it intuitive to assemble, even if you are setting it up by yourself for the first time.

The high mesh sidewalls are primarily designed for ventilation to reduce condensation, which is great for warmer weather. Because of this, it offers less wind protection and privacy than a solid-walled tent, so it is best used in three-season conditions rather than late-season cold.

Unlike traditional zippered tent bags that can be a struggle to pack, the roll-top cube design is much more forgiving. It makes packing the tent away faster and easier, especially when you are trying to stuff the tent back in after a rainy morning.

The 11-square feet of vestibule space is enough to keep your boots and a couple of medium-sized packs protected from the rain. It keeps your gear accessible without cluttering the interior sleeping area.
