Campmor is an outdoor recreation equipment retailer established in Bogota, New Jersey in 1978 by Morton Jarashow. Known for its wide selection of outdoor clothing, camping, backpacking, bicycling and water sports equipment, Campmor derives more than 80% of its sales from its website, http://www.campmor.com/.
Campmor is unique within its industry for its retail service model, which places particular emphasis on employee knowledge rather than on employee versatility, where the person you may be talking to about your purchase will be an avid user of that product. That makes a big difference.
ALONG WITH LL BEAN AND DULUTH PACK,
I CAN MOST WHOLE HEARTEDLY RECOMMEND CAMPMOR!
I CAN ALSO RECOMMEND EUREKA TENTS!
I cannot remember when I did not camp out, starting with bare-bones camping as a very young child alongside the Ohio River, a blanket and a skillet comprising my camping gear, maybe a tarp of some kind. I still enjoy this type of adventure and made a trip down river in a canoe in that manner once since I've been retired.


My eldest son, Mark, owns this tent. I borrowed it in 1989 for a wilderness canoe trip with my brother, Henry. I have wanted to own this tent every since. I need to buy it now as it looks like EUREKA is going to discontinue this exact tent for an improved model of the same tent. I prefer the older, familiar tent. It is on sale at the moment for $50 off, a good deal.
On that trip, my brother and I certainly gave the tent's stability a good work out. It stood up to the test. A tornado went through the forest blowing down trees all around us. The temperature suddenly dropped about 20 degrees with hail falling, the oft described train sound started as the wind started to fell the trees. The rain was a torrent. That little tent swayed, at times nearly collasping upon us. We moved the cots together to get away from the sides of the tent. It kept us warm and dry, all you can ask of a tent.
The EUREKA TIMBERLINE TENTS are possibly the most popular tent
with millions sold over the years. I am pleased to own another one.

All that being said, once camping equipment is acquired, and I have it all, you can live out-of-doors in relative comfort for next to nothing. This now makes cross country trips a possibility on retirement income as it once did as a young family man starting out in life.
AND, I LIKE TO CAMP!
