Are you thinking about getting one of these ? Where are you going to be camping ? If it is anywhere that has a bear population you do not want a pop up. Get a hard side tc.
I already have one (Pop Up).Don't quite understand the bear comment. A bear will wail through a Filon side as easily as an upper tent side.

The hard side walls on my pop up are right at 8' tall. If griz is trying to do a chin up he'll get a face full of bear spray or buckshot.
I camped at the above campground near Cooke City, MT right after two tent campers were killed by grizzlies. The warning about hard sides only applied to pop up trailers with the fabric within four feet (can't recall the exact dimension) off the ground. My camper was considered a hard side per the NFS at that time. I'll see if I can find the details.
