Outdoor Research NightHaven Light Shelter 2-Person

For the same weight as a square, flat tarp, the Outdoor Research NightHaven Light Shelter provides weather protection that rivals most single-wall tents. By using Outdoor Research's partial-floor design, the NightHaven Light Shelter keeps blowing rain, dust, and bugs from getting inside—the main drawback to standard floorless shelters. Silnylon fabric helps this impressive shelter reach its low 2lb 2oz weight, and you can pitch it with your trekking poles, so you don't have to pack any more weight than you're already carrying.

Bottom Line: Bring along the Outdoor Research NightHaven Light Shelter to shave weight from you pack without resorting to a lean-to.

The name says it all, its super light, extremely packable and after a few set ups easy to pitch on the trail or in the bush. Outdoor Research doesn't offer a full line of tents but what they do offer is pure gold. This tent has all the amenities of a floored tent with the weight of a pocket shelter. No-see-um mesh zip door, roof vent and mesh on all four sides keep the air well circulated. Pitching this tent for one used to poles and guide sleeves might find this tent a bit complicated but for ultra lighters or someone looking for a more packable option should look no further. Condensation levels stay pretty low during the summer with the door unzipped. I highly suggest purchasing the footprint, which works more as a floor than a footprint. Another attribute few floorless designs have is the floor extension that the footprint overlaps for full protection from cold or wet ground. Two person is an adequate rating the length is good but for anyone over 6' 2"¯ it would be a bit tight. The height also for taller people might be a bit tight with the restrictions from the trekking poles. This tent for the price is a steal, no one offers a tent with these options for the price. A few suggestion for erecting this tent with trekking poles is to have a pole that has a latching mechanism like Black Diamonds Flicklock instead of a twist lock like the MSR Denali III poles makes set up much quicker and easier. Also this tent needs to be erected on almost completely flat ground to allow for good air circulation.

Is this shelter completely enclosed with netting or other material?...

Is this shelter completely enclosed with netting or other material? What exactly is meant by "partial floor design"?

Its a floorless tent but with wall extensions that the footprint overlaps to make a full floor. This picture is a bit misleading because its pictured with the footprint.
