Setting Up Your Tent

Selecting a Tent

If you haven't bought or borrowed tent yet, here are some things to consider. Naked Heart has a square footage limit of 64 sq. ft. for tents under our communal shade. That is plenty of space for 2 people and luxurious for 1 person and all their stuff. When we are providing shade and wind protection, it is tempting to buy a larger tent, but there are problems with that. The first is that it can get very crowded in the Solarium and we want to be certain that everyone has enough room. The second consideration is that the larger tents are not sturdy enough to withstand playa conditions unprotected. There are moments before and after we set up the Solarium that you may need to occupy your tent without the Solarium. Choosing a sturdier tent will give you flexibility.

The most common tents that people use are often made by Coleman. They can be found at Costco or Walmart for about $70. Here are some examples:
