what is the difference between three season tent and a four season?
I am looking into Tents and i want to know the real difference between a four season tent and a three season tent other then the price? what is a major difference?
There are many differences between 3 season and 4 season tents that all boil down to one main point: 4 season tents are built for the worst of conditions—winter and expedition.
4 season tents do not have mesh panels, they have mesh doors that can be sealed-off by canopy doors. That means extra zipper tracks, extra fabric, and therefore extra weight. 3 season tents have exposed mesh panels that cannot be sealed-off. If you take a 3 season tent out on a cold winter day, you'll get pretty chilly.
4 season tents have wider pole diameters, these poles are heavier, but stronger. Also, 4 season tents have poled vestibules, because we expect you to have to spend time inside your vestibule when the storms are raging outside.
Those are some of the main differences. Others are more subtle, like tent geometry. wouldn't recommend purchasing a 4 season tent unless you expect to camp in winter conditions on a pretty regular basis. For the occasional winter trip, but mostly summer camping, you may want to consider a convertible tent.
