  • Camping tent for those with mobility issues, wheelers

    The folks over at Blue Sky Designs have developed an accessible tent for camping that has won design awards. It's not cheap at $329, but may help considerably in getting you out into the woods. - Dave

    The Freedom tent's key elements which improve accessibility are the door, which is zipperless, and can be opened with minimal dexterity, and the vestibule, which offers a protected area in which to store equipment.

    Has anyone tried this? My childeren want to go camping this summer and I was wondering if it was as easy as it showes on the website. A little pricy but would make the adventure a while lot easier. The thing I was woried about was how easy the transfer would be with the wheelchair in the first room and the bed in the second. Let me know if any one has used it. Thanks.
