The North Face Rock 32 Bx Tent 3-Person 3-Season - 2009
You don’t need a PhD in tent-pitching to set up The North Face Rock 32 Bx Tent. Which is awesome, because no school offers such a degree, so you usually get stuck wrestling with it at the campsite (which is such a drag when you just want to make dinner). Thanks to a simple two-pole design, setup is a snap. You’ll also dig the tent’s two doors and double vestibules—they come in handy when you’re lodging up to three adults in one tent. Internal pockets and hang loops provide easy spots to hang your headlamp and stash your beanie. This tent weighs very little for a three-person getup, but if you want to go extra-light, you can set it up with just the rainfly.
Bottom Line: Just don’t do the ultra-light fly-only setup along the lake shore in bug season. We tried it; don’t do it.
It's light weight and compact size make it ideal for backpacking or weekend trips. Living in the southeast, the tent is plenty warm, dry, and sturdy. It is easy to set up, even with one person. While sleeping two, it is comfortable with room for packs. Overall I am very happy with my Rock 32.
My girlfriend and I got this tent a few weeks ago. We live in Florida and do a lot of trekking in warmer climates as well as other places in the US. This tent was icnredibly easy to set up. 1 person coudl easily do it, with 2 people it was up in less than 2 minutes. The trail weight and size was very condusive to backpacking. The tent itself is all mesh and we were able to see the stars and feel like we were sleeping outside. The dual door and vestibules are very helpful. One thing is I would suggest this tent for 2 people. We had 2 packs and 2 pads/sleeping bags and it fit but with 3 people it would be a tight squeeze. Also the price of this tent makes it all the better. We looked at some others including a Marmot that lsited for double the price. Bottom line...great tent for anyone looking to explore the outdoors.
I just bought this tent yesterday and put it up to try it out. Its an awesome tent, very easy to set up, and seems very light. My only issue is its kinda small, but I'm 6'5" and my feet were touching both ends. Besides that its cool. It has a little gear loft built in and the vestibules are decent size, maybe big enough for a pack and boots.
Fantastic tent. I used this tent on a backpacking trip in the Dolly Sods in WVa, where the wind was incredibly strong, almost as if it was trying to collapse the tent. The tent took absolutely it all in stride. I set it up by myself in less than 5 minutes. The dual vestibules are great for keeping your gear out of the elements, and the gear loft is great for drying out wet clothes or storing your headlamp or whatever. It is plenty light enough to backpack with and is completely waterproofed along all the seams. Again, it's a great tent and I am going to be using it for a while to come.
