This is the Outdoor biz's "home away from home" department. Shelter from the elements is a primary need for everyone outside. The primary design choices center around volume (can you sit up?), length (especially if you're tall), ventilation, covered outside area for boots, storage, socializing and of course cooking, and strength (wind and snow loads) and weight.
