Danchel’s 13 ft model teepee is an excellent choice for getting out friends and family into the wilderness. It takes all of the benefits of a teepee style tent and maximizes available space by using a tapered, bell-style to get the bottoms of the walls vertical. While the “lightweight” qualifier is definitely subject to some scrutiny, the Danchel Teepee is objectively compact based on durability and space it provides.
With a wide door and three easy-access windows, you can be close to nature on your own terms. Its weatherproof construction keeps the wild out when necessary. Due to its airy design, and well-tailored ventilation system, this tent is best suited for large groups in warm climates.
