Camping Filter - Is it necessary?

Water is heavy and takes up a lot of space. Even if you are planning a camping trip to an established campground with water supplies readily available, any day hiking trip will require you to haul enough water on your person for each member of your family. This article gives you a preview to portable camping water filters.

Antarctica updates, July 2011

Filed under:

The fact that today's high was -67 degrees at the South Pole is not news. Especially for the 49 hardy souls overwintering; they knew what they signed on for. Nor is it a shock that it was -97 at Vostok one day last week, since the Russian base holds the record for the coldest temperature ever recorded (-128).

But there are some surprises being reported from the deep-deep south during the continent's long, cold winter (which lasts eight months, roughly March through October). Like that alien species are invading and that declining penguin numbers may have less to do with warming temps than previously thought. And that the ozone hole over the continent increasingly influences the southern hemisphere's weather and that the ice around the continent's edges is melting faster than predicted. And that for the first time in a decade tourist visits to Antarctica are expected to dip dramatically in the coming summer season.

1. The aliens worrying Antarctic observers are not of the cellophane-skin and pumpkin-head variety, but rather more garden variety: Insects, slugs, worms, plant seeds and fungi that sneak in with the fruits and vegetables consumed by the 4,000 scientists who call Antarctica home during the summer season. Tourists are contributing too, carrying plant seeds in on their shoes and clothing. The invasion is encouraging calls for new levels of "biosecurity" to protect the otherwise pristine continent from being further infiltrated. For the moment, simple fungi and mold are the greatest concern because they often carry plant diseases: On the 11,250 fruit and vegetables sent to nine research stations researchers found soil on 12 percent of the food as well as 56 alien invertebrates and 19 different species of mold. On Antarctica's near islands, rats, mice and cats are already devastating bird populations, a risk the mainland doesn't have to worry about ... for now ... since warm-blooded creatures have a hard time surviving sub-sub freezing temps. For now.

Open Question: Is the Adventuridge 9'x7' dome tent from Aldi any good?

I just bought a cute little tent from Aldi yesterday and I tried setting it up and it seemed perfect for me and my two kids to go camping...it looked/felt great from the inside. The only problem was that, it didn't feel like it would be rain proof. I want to know if it's worth keeping or should I return it?
