OzTrail Nomad 1 Hiking Tent

Excellent Swag Alternative – After originally purchasing a swag and not enjoying it or feeling comfortable I went looking for something else just for me on overnight stays whilst the kids slept in their own tent. Even if I was traveling by myself on the motorbike I could fit this on the bike as the bag is tiny and when going in the car it can fit anywhere. On the first trip I took it away on (see pic, although I think I had started disassembling it when I took the pic so it may be missing the fly) we had arrived there just before midnight and I wasn't in the mood for reading instructions, 5 minutes later it was set up and ready for sleeping in. It was a dewy morning and I didn't get wet at all, the tent packed up back inside the bag quite easily and we were on our way back on the road quicker than normal. My suggestion would be to take a single mattress (not overly thick) for those rock hard grounds such as we found in Duaringa, and invest in some more robust pegs. Apart from that, if a swag makes you feel claustrophobic than this is a viable alternative.
