    Smile Finally a chance to use my Expedition!!

    Well, finally I was able to try out my Expedition Classic.

    Initial impressions:
    I loved it!
    It was awesome!
    My son is begging for his own (ok, when the next sale comes around)

    Observations/questions:
    1. seemed like I was too high on the left side, I was hitting/nearly hitting the netting -- kept adjusting my position but then I felt like I was not angled quite right.
    2. what is the best way to get into your sleeping bag? I was able to get in just fine at the legs by turning it on its side but the upper body seemed a little tougher.
    3. the bottom entry was fine, but would the side zipper entry make #1 & #2 easier?

    Other thoughts:
    1. I think I will never bring a tent again as long as there are trees where we are going.
    2. At 6 foot, 208 pounds, I found the size fine. Unless that is related to my observations/questions above....
    3. Since I'm going to get one for my son now, I'm thinking going Explorer Deluxe Ultra-light (light version of the Explorer Deluxe). Any other things I ought to consider?

    Thank you for your feedback.
