Mega Light Shelter

The Black Diamond Mega Light's SilNylon construction and simple design allow it to shelter four backpackers while adding less than three pounds to group weight. Unlike a crammed tent, the Mega Light provides 81 square feet of covered floor space and a roomy 57 inches of useable height, so you have plenty of room when you need to wait out a storm. Use this Black Diamond shelter on a lightweight summer trip, or pitch it on the snow at base camp and dig out the floor to create a plush kitchen. The only thing that limits the Mega Light's use is your imagination.

Alaska Tough!

Familiarity:
I've put it through the wringer

My family and I have had this shelter for two years now. We bought it after a number of recommendations from friends. We have used in all seasons and it works pretty darn good here in AK. By no means is it absolutely perfect but for the weight and the size it gets the job done. Our last use was on a 3 day Kesugi Ridge hike where the first night we had 30-50 mph winds and the last night we had down pouring rain. It held up fine. It was a little noisy in the wind and small amount of rain entered in from beneath. Pros: It is pretty easy to set up even in windy conditions. It has reasonable amount of space for 3 people and a dog. After you seam seal it, the material is water tight. For pest control we use a cheap pyramid shaped mosquito net from REI that fits perfect and works well. Tyvec is used for the ground cloth. Cons: It doesn't have a floor nor bug netting which you can purchase separately from BD but that adds a lot of weight to carry. Would I buy it again and pay full price? Absolutely!
