Tents are divided mainly into seasonal categories. Their usefulness is based not only on their overall capacity and ease of use but also on which season or seasons that they are best suited for. For the most part, a tent is either suited for use during the whole year including the colder winter months, or for only the spring-summer and autumn. As you can expect, the ones rated for year-round use are called four-season tents, while those rated for slightly warmer weather are called three-season tents.
The tents we’ve presented here are rated as three-season tents, which means that although they can withstand an occasional snowfall, they are more suited for rainy or windy conditions overall. So if you think that you will be doing a fair amount of camping during the colder months, then these may not be the best tents to choose from. However, in most cases, a three-season tent will prove to be more than enough to get the job done.
