Mattie,
There's plenty of room for a toddler to sleep next to a porta-cot.
Lay the canvas out - align the zip - zip it around (from the inside) - stick velcro bits on - erect 2 tent poles --- say 5ish minutes if you have a helper (or a bit longer stuffing around with guy ropes and what not). You can bang about a billion pegs into it around the base if you want - but that takes extra time.
Maybe take 10 minutes if doing it single-handed.
First time you do it, it'll be 10 to 15 minutes.
Duncs,
We liked the convenience of your Trak Shak on our SD trip - so we finally bit the bullet and got a KK. It beats the heck out of putting up tents and knocking them down again if moving every day. Just about every time we have taken the KK out, it has poured with rain. At least we've proven it's waterproof.
We're looking at doing a trip to Karajini and
Rudall River in July - I haven't assessed it for "Confluence-ability" yet but wiil so soon. I work quite close to one (E121 S28 only about 15 km away) but haven't gone out to
check it out yet.
Keyla and the girls are just fine.
Cheers
Stephen J.
