THE
FORESTER TENT
FORESTER
TENT: Another tent style built
with the outdoors in view and a fire in front, the Forester Tent was first
used by Daniel Beard, the founder of the Boy Scouts of America.
Colonel Whelen describes it as "one of the best tents devised for the
chronic woods loafer...who wishes to live close to nature and who objects
to spending any of his outdoor hours confined in a closed canvas cell. The
Forester Tent is the easiest and quickest to pitch...and with the exception
of the Whelen lean-to, it is the easiest to warm with a campfire in
front."
The basic design is a sloped roof wedge tent with the front of the tent
wider than the rear. The front is seven feet wide, six feet tall and open,
while the rear is three feet wide, three feet tall, with a solid triangular
wall. The length is about eight feet.
