Eureka! Copper Canyon 1312 Tent Review

If you are the kind of camper who has always considered your old, straight-walled 8X10 to be “pretty large”, get one of these. It’s more like a hotel room than anything else. If your party is four or less, you’ll find room for everybody and all your gear.
You’ll also find a tent that’s easy to set up. Really. Even the first time. I set it up myself in about 30-35 minutes, including time to figure everything out. With all the numerous, large windows and doors open, it’s like having the outside in. In warmer weather, the view of the trees and night sky above is a treat. In colder or wet weather, with the rain fly on and windows adjusted for conditions, it’s snug and dry. The ventilation is amazing.There are convenient and effective storage spaces. There are two large “D” doors, and right by them, two zippered small “doors” for power cables, SatRadio antennas or whatever. You can divide the interior in two, sort of. The divider hangs loosely, but probably will not be used by most people anyway.

This tent’s first trip was to Mammoth Lakes’ New Shady Rest Campground. Except for the occassional light traffic noise and the booming voice of the High School Friday Night Football’s announcer next door, it’s like being in the deep woods miles from anything. For a few minutes, we wondered if LA’s Pershing Square, with it’s expounders, had gone camping. The wilderness with McDonald’s a ten minute walk away. Pretty nice. The camp host, Dave, stands up there with the very best, too. If you’re there next year, and he’s there, you won’t be disappointed. Most of Mammoth is the same way. Our party of three went away for 4 nights. There was one of those fierce Eastern Sierra Fall Windstorms before I got back, but the tent showed no signs of stress or strain. No guy-outs even. Things left on the table outside were blown around, but the Eureka had no problem. Not to worry with Dave on duty, though. He had my cell number, and said, true to his word, he would call if anything adverse happened.

And this tent is nice to look at, too. With the dappled sunlight coming through the copper and creme-colored panels, it’s downright pleasant. The Eureka designers and engineers really did their work well with the Copper Canyon series. A Home Run.
Nearly any camper, experienced or not, should like this one.
