Hi guys
Just came back from sg congkak this morning
In short, nice place for camping. Clean and feel quite safe
Water is cooling. Only downside, my leg hurts walking in the stream. Too many smooth stones. Lol
And was raining heavily at night too. My camp masuk a bit water from underneath
Also the tent description can fit 5 ppl. Well, for me 2 adult 2 kids already feel a bit cramp. Fake marketing
Some pics to share
Thanks for sharing the picture and let me help you on the camping part.
We need to see the terrain first before setting up the tent to ensure the water does not flow into your tent base if it is raining. Unless you are in a limited constraint terrain, then you have no choice but Sg Congkak should not be an issue.
I am not sure whether you have a sleeping mat as your base to ensure your body stays warm during the night. Another method to ensure you sleep comfortable will be putting a ground sheet below of your tent which could provide you better area for you to put your unnecessary stuff outside of the camp when you are sleeping. Better investment will be an inflatable air mattress which could be 10 times more expensive compare to a mat. At least both methods will prevent you from catching wet during the night.
To choose a right tent, always remember to -1/-2. When it said as a 3 man tent, it is always comfortable with 1, ok for 2, cramp for 3. You could invest in a flysheet to secure your tent to ensure no water leakage comes from the top. Marketing is all about delusion. You could see why some choose to set up hammock instead of tents
