Not every tent is expedition quality!
It requires a special kind of tent to get through an expedition. Expeditions don’t get over whenever you wish to go home, they get over when you are done doing what you came out to do.
It could be climbing the highest mountain the world or spending days in the snow to study a rare wild animal. Of course we cannot forget the passionate mountaineer or climber, who wants to be out there braving the elements to conquer a peak or a rock face.
