Why We Like The Mega Snow Tent
The Mega Snow Tent fills a major gap in our camp quiver: a basecamp shelter optimized for our coldest expeditions. This all-season shelter is made with seam-sealed high-tenacity polyester that keeps its shape in wet environments. The perimeter features a valance that buries into the snow to create a sealed edge that keeps wind and powder out. Assembly is simple thanks to its single-pole design and printed setup tips, and the unique ventilation system allows us to cook and chill safely without letting in too much cold air.

Mid done right
Pretty simple its a mid with snowflaps but it is light, simple, easy to set up, and all you need for spring missions in the mountains.

Concerns Around Stitching
Was guiding a school program where all the students were using these. Had one of guideline loops rip off and the stitching around the snow skirt seemed thin, some of them started to tear. Now, I do live on the coast and we were camping in some of the hardest conditions possible. (0°C HST 40cm) The water equivalency of that snow is high!

Great winter specific features
As a dedicated winter shelter the snow flaps, meshed peak vent and adjustable upper zipper vent are great additions over the regular Mega Light. Being able to bury the snow flaps rather than the normal edge of the Mega Light helps save room inside and helps support the walls when snow-loaded. New go-to winter shelter for 1-3 people.

Mega Snow 4P Tent
Everything is pretty much how I thought. I would like to see something to adjust the length of stakes at the four corners and the guy out lines.

Light and easy to set-up
Very light, easy to pack and to set-up. I would I loved to choose between two colors as sometimes, this beautiful blue can rapidly become darker as the sun goes down.

Needs internal hoops
The sides fall in too much limiting the space. Needs an option to have collapsable poles to create a tunnel.
