A decent 4,500mm HH means I’d be confident camping in this tent in all seasons.The tent was fast and intuitive to set up with colour coded poles and good instructions inside the bag if you do get stuck.Top: Front view of the Rocky Mountain 5 with door fully open Bottom Left: Easily adjustable tent peg loops Bottom Right: Roll up bedroom window with mesh cover The quality of the Rocky Mountain 5 is good, and it’s not difficult to see why it’s an award winning tent. The Rocky Mountain 5 Blackout bedroom with the rear window open The verdict?Īs the previous owner of 2 Coleman tents, we’ve always found that price wise, you tend to get slightly more for your money than say a similar spec of Vango tent. Inside the living area as well as a cable entry point, we found plenty of storage pockets, as well as lantern hanging points and velcro around the bedroom compartment which allowed us to tidy away the cable from the HUBi light we use. There are triangular windows in the front corners of the living area which have covers that can be easily opened up to let more light in, and on the right hand side opposite the smaller door, there’s an air vent and a large clear window so you can make the most of the view from your pitch. We found set up to be simple and intuitive and although the tent can be pitched as one, first time around, we needed to attach the bedroom compartment inside. To put the tent up there are 3 poles to assemble which are colour coded and are attached in place using a simple ring and pin system. It’s a traditional tunnel design tent with a front living area, and a rear bedroom that can be separated using a clip in divider. On arrival at the campsite the tent took the 2 of us about 15 minutes to put up. We’ve written previously about the Coleman Rocky Mountain 5 tent after seeing it at the Caravan, Camping & Motorhome Show earlier this year, so when Coleman got in touch with us, we were keen to field test one for ourselves.
