adjustable tent pole (not trekking pole) for SMD Lunar Solo
Newbie to the forum, so my apologies if there's a thread covering this that I've not found yet.....
I'm preparing to buy my first single-wall shelter and have settled on a SMD Lunar Solo. Before pulling the trigger, I need to finalize my choice of vertical support. I have, but don't want to carry, trekking poles. I could buy SMD's 48-inch tent pole, but I wonder whether a fixed pole length will limit my ability to pitch the tent (esp. the front vestibule) lower to the ground when I want to do so.
This leads me to two questions:
- Is this a real problem that people encounter with this tent, or am I just imagining it to be one? How do users with the SMD pole create a low pitch at the front?
- Has anyone looked for and found adjustable-height tent poles in the 48-inch range? I've looked a bit, and most seem to be 6-8 feet.
Thanks in advance!
