Marmot Thor 3-Person 4-Season Tent

The Marmot Thor 3-Person 4-Season Tent uses a burly six-pole design to fight off wind and snow during the roughest high-mountain storms. Designed specifically for alpine climbing and mountaineering, the Thor Tent stands strong whether you're on Rainer, Denali, or Everest. Dual doors and vestibules allow quick and easy entry for all three inhabitants, and provide a place to store your crampons and boot shells out of the weather. Marmot thought ahead to storm-bound days and gave this tent the Knees Pole System to steepen the walls and increase useable interior space.

Bottom Line: When you head into the high mountains, make sure you have the Marmot Thor Tent to see you through the stormy times.

I had this tent in 55 mph winds

By:
May 6, 2009

Sand storm at Burning Man, (before the crowds) fully exposed to full wind on flat ground.
It stood up fine to those winds. One pole got bent slightly, but out of about 11 tents, mine and one other was the only one left standing. That windstorm flattened the camp. The rest of the tents were wrecked 2-3 beyond repair. Those people had pretty sucky time and had to retreat to cars that night.
The next week it was 110 degrees out, the elastic bungies built into the aluminum poles died. But those are not essential equipment and no other bungie would have lived. I do not find that a flaw. It is small and cramped for two, I only had enough room for myself and my gear. But it is super well designed for what it went through. I have no regrets forking over the extra dough for this tent.

Stands like a Norse god in the rain and wind

Just used this tent last weekend and have no complaints at all.
It rained most of the time, but didn't leak.
I would recommend the footprint to protect your investment and have an extra water-proof layer at the bottom.
The vestibule is fairly large and because of the 2 doors, can be in the front or back of your tent.
Even putting it up in the dark (without ever seeing a picture or manual) wasn't too bad.
There are 3 different types of poles which caused minor confusion if you've used the tent before, but it only took 2 minutes to figure out where they go.

Overall: Great tent

I saw in the description that this tent is designed for denali

I saw in the description that this tent is designed for denali (where good tents go... to die) is this tent really up for denali in a storm? I like this tent because it is about 100$ cheaper than most the other ones i'm looking at, and i like marmot, but the thing that worries me is that it is 100$ cheaper... Is it still capable of surviving anything (minus axes, crampons and shovels)?

This is a really burly tent. I actually have a friend that took this exact tent up Kilimanjaro, so you should be fine.

Solid 4 season tent, with a few minor gripes. I prefer more robust poles and less than 3 different variations per tent; this one has 3 or 4 different lengths/bends. A good and warm 4 season tent.

Six minutes for one person, three minutes for two, & two minutes for three. You can accurately figure one minute per pole once you've practiced the assembly a few times.
