What is the interior height? I live in Canada. Will there be any duties or other fees?

Interior height is listed as 140cm (or 55in)

I would call the 800# listed at the top of the page for shipping specifics... talking to real people is usually more effective than leaving questions on comment boards.

Awesome time on A.T.

I purchased this tent for a four day trip on the A.T. It is very easy to put up even in the rain. I did purchase the footprint for it as well which I would suggest to anyomne hiking or camping in rocky terrain just for added wear and tear. The tent was very quick to dry out after it rained the first night. It was a little tight for four people and their gear. One of our team members is very tall and we had to lay long ways in the tent other then that it was great.

Grand Mesa qualities

By: Christopher Moeder(1)
August 27, 2007

I used the grand mesa 4 person tent for a week in the Wind River range in Wyoming with my family, and it held up really well. I selected this tent because of the low weight/good space for backpacking. It was easy to setup, and withstood nightly thunderstorms with hail and strong gusty winds. The material is kind of thin, but that's what makes it lighter to carry. I used a plastic sheet for my ground cloth which will help extend the life of the tent. Decent tent for the money.

Nice but scary

By: Jeff Omans(15)
July 18, 2007

This is a nice overall tent but could be a big problem in 2 scenarios: 1. It's raining when you want to set it up or break it down. It's wide open without the (excellent rain fly). 2. The "bathtub" floor is awful thin. I can't image it lasting too many trips until it develops holes, and, if it rains hard, the floor will probably develop a lot of condensation. If you're going to spend $ like I did, you might want to see if there is anything similar that doesn't have these potential problems.
