Camped last night and found a little water in the tent in the morning. The temps were in the lower 40's. Camped near a creek and it rained, so the moisture level was high. It was me, my boy , and our dog. We had no water bottles of packs in tent.

We slept on cots. I do not think the tent leaked but in the morning I found a pool about the size 1/4 or less of a cup on the floor of the tent. The ground tarp was dry and I did not see any wet spots on the underside of the tent floor.

Could that all be from condensation. No my boy nor did my dog pee in the tent. I did have a few beers so I am not sure about me.

I had a similar experiance in another tent a few years ago

My guess would be condensation, but could of been a leak too! Condensation can be pretty bad in moist areas like a creek even when the air is dry, throw some high humidity in the mix from rain and you need an umbrella!
