Hi folks!

I am once again overnighting solo on the beautiful island of Kalasuntti, located in the middle of Sahajärvi Lake in Teijo National Park. This time I am tent camping in my newly acquired Asta Gear Yun Chuan 2-person tent. The trail I followed winds its way around the picturesque Sahajärvi Lake, located within Teijo National Park, SW Finland. I show how I set up the tent and some pros and cons I noticed while doing so. I bought the tent from AliExpress for 153 euros and had to pay an additional 37 euros in customs. Delivery was slow and took over 6 weeks to arrive.

The tent was a bit difficult to set up for the first time, especially the inner. By comparison, the flysheet was simple to erect and, if used alone, would make a palatial tarp shelter. As a two-person tent, it was very spacious with loads of headroom. The vestibules are large. I set up the fly at the recommended 135cm, which meant that some of the lower edges were quite high off the ground. I will have to practice a bit to get the pitch more even.

After a good night's sleep, I continue around the Sahajärvi Trail in the greening woods of early Finnish summer. I offer my thoughts and justifications for buying this tent over the Durston X-mid, of which the Yun Chuan is claimed to be a copy or ripoff. You can decide for yourself.

I hope you enjoy this video and hope to catch you again in the next one.

The footage was filmed with a GoPro 11.
