Setting up ARPENAZ 4 family tent | Coldbrook campground, CA

We recently returned from a weekend hiking trip in the  Angeles National Forest . We camped for twoo nights in   Coldbrook campground . Is a 20-site campground, first-come first-serve, for $12 per night. Fire rings, picnic tables, toilets and drinking water are provided.  Coldbrook campground  it is open all year. We camp with our  Quechua ARPENAZ 4 family tent . It's easy mounting if there are two of you, a bit more difficult if just one person doing all the job. Certainly strong and waterproof . This tent is very comfy with a spacious sleeping area and a good size porch for sitting in. We find the Arpenaz is a great size for two but three people would probably be fine if you don't take too much stuff. In the next video you will see how we set up this tent:
