The two-person tent is built for use in all four seasons, and has a high enough ceiling to sit up in, with a peak height of 43 inches.
Tents are usually split into two categories: backpacking tents, which are small, lightweight, and meant to travel in your pack, and heavier car-camping tents, which are designed for drive-in camp spots (or backyards), and often have more features and interior space. But if you plan to do a little bit of both? Go for a crossover tent, like REI’s Arete ASL 2 tent. The two-person tent is built for use in all four seasons, and has a high enough ceiling to sit up in, with a peak height of 43 inches. Plus it weighs just under six pounds, which is lightweight enough to carry on shorter backpacking trips, and won't take up much room when thrown in the trunk of a car.
