Description

Because complications just make things more complicated.

Often in the world of tents, lightweight and weatherproof are mutually exclusive concepts. You can have either but not both. Mountain Hardwear has found a way for you and a partner to have your cake and eat it, too, with the Drifter 2 DP Tent. At just over four-and-a-half pounds, you'll hardly notice the weight of the Drifter, especially if you split the load, and with its guaranteed watertight construction, you'll find the Drifter worth its weight in gold in the backcountry.

  • Tough polyester canopy and fly construction (68D and 75D, respectively) for many seasons of tough use
  • Tough, lightweight DAC Pressfit poles
  • Dual doors and vestibules for easy entry and exit and plenty of room to dry out wet gear
  • Plenty of floor space for healthy, full-grown adults
  • Under 5 pounds of total weight for easy carrying
  • Unique DryPitch feature allows you to set up the fly first so you can erect the tent under the protection of the fly
  • Footprint included so you can set up a super light shelter with just the fly, footprint and poles
  • Guaranteed watertight construction tested in Mountain Hardwear's Rain Room to 1200 inches in 24 hours

Used this tent in some deep desert wilderness in Arizona and I was pretty happy with it overall. Setup is super quick and easy and the quality of materials seems top notch. I mostly used this tent in hot, dry, windy conditions. This tent is perfect for that because the mesh on top keeps air moving, while the walled sides block wind well if you're sleeping with the fly off (as we did). These walls also help stop dust and sand from blowing into the tent.

My only gripes are that it's a little bit heavier than I'd like for backpacking, the fly doesn't get very taught so it flaps a lot in the wind, the zippers can be a bit of a struggle, and it's a little bit cramped with two in there.

Overall, I quite enjoyed using this tent and I wouldn't hesitate to bring it into the mountains. But I also feel like it might be worth the extra $50 for something a bit more bomber.
