Sierra Designs Lightning XT 2 Tent 2-Person 3-Season

Sierra Designs gave the Lightning XT 2 Tent a unique, split-pole configuration that gives you not only a lower weight, but increased living space for comfortable nights and tent-bound days. Two doors and two vestibules give each person storage space and an easy exit when nature calls in the middle of the night. The nylon mesh walls provide maximum breathability and reduced condensation, and the Jake’s Foot corners lock in poles for easy solo set-ups.

Bottom Line: A lightweight tent with room to stretch out.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't come with a footprint, but backcountry doesn't seem to have any in stock. You should hop on customer support chat to see if they're getting any more in.

Roomiest Lightweight Tent

By:
April 20, 2009

With the new split pole design of this tent, not only do you save weight but it also creates a ton of space inside the tent by making the walls very vertical. We're talking about 30 square feet of interior space! If that wasn't enough, Sierra Designs had the environment in mind by using DAC Featherlite NSL poles which use an anodizing process that dramatically reduces the use of phosphoric and nitric acids (cleaner manufacturing makes a cleaner environment). Set up of the tent is a snap with the new Jakes foot corner connections for the poles. The poles actually snap into a corner piece that includes clip on points for the footprint and rain fly. This is my new go to tent for backpacking trips with my wife.

Yes, and no. Yes, it's possible to fit in this tent, but not comfortably, unless you sleep diagonally or never stretch, don't mind rubbing the sides of the tent (top/bottom) with your bag, or sleep on your side. Your length is 76in, while the tent is only 7in longer, with most sleeping bags using up that extra 7in easily with the foot box and hood.

A good alternative would be something like the Big Agnes Copper Spur 2. It's a larger tent, weighs less, but does cost more. I'm 6'5" and it works great.
