The North Face Mountain 25 Tent - 2-Person 4-Season

The ideal 2 man 4 season tent that withstands strong winds & heavy snow loads. Extremely durable as well as fairly light- 7lbs. Due to an exterior venting system, it allows air flow that reduces wind effect on the tent. Special features include 2 entrances- 1 with a large vestibule, interior venting zippers, 2 large mesh pockets per side, glow in the dark zippers, vestibule window, mesh screens with hooks, durable floor, and enough space for 3 if you really had to squeeze in there. Have used this tent in the Colorado high country for spring skiing, as well as a tent for 3 people at Camp III on Gasherbrum II last summer (23,500ft). The tent has maintained its structure and performed perfectly, withstanding serious snow loads & high winds upon our return to it from days away at a time.

Quick tip- this tent can be stuffed back into it's sack, so no need to fold it in a precise pattern to get it to fit! Makes packing up & getting out really fast and easy.

I Have been using this tent for a few years now and it holds up to high winds, massive downpours and heavy snow loads. I once woke up to a foot of snow on top of the tent. Weight is acceptable for this level of protection. One problem--this tent does not breathe well in summer, and can get very warm.

This tent is ideal for base camp situations where you can get it set up right and leave it. This isnt a tent that you want to set up and tear down alot. The fly, and the ventilation system relys on the stakes alot, so if you plan to camp in the snow make sure you bring plenty of snow anchors. I am 6'-0" and the length of the tent is just right. If you are taller then that you might have some issues. If you can get all of the anchors to hold this tent is bomb proof, and holds up to all weather situations. It is heavy, but like the other reviews say, the protection is worth it.

I bought this tent in 1999 and it still holds up strong with no leaking or peeling of any kind. I just bought another one yesterday - saw the new one on sale and couldn't pass it up!! Yes, it can get hot in the summer but I have used it throughout all 4 seasons. Whether setting up in puddles or snow, it has held up exceptionally well. The only thing that I have never liked about it is that it weighs a lot for a tent. If I had the extra money, I would go for the new Mountain Hardware tents (super light).

i love this tent it rock solid, iv used it for winter camping, snowshowing and alpine climbing in UT CO and ID and it has preformed very very well. this thing is a bob proff you could probaly lay on it(only kidding DO NOT LAY ON IT) i love this tent NF did a great job very well air flow and good ventalation

This tent is bomb proof! Was on Mt Shasta in April, it snowed, wind was blowing 25+, and this tent was awesome! Everyone else was miserable, but with proper snow stakes (sand and snow stakes from REI) this tent held up and was quite roomy for two. The vestibule was great for cooking and storage of gear. Ventilation was good. Only draw back was weight, but if you split it up, the fly and poles it really is not that bad. Well worth it!!!

This tent kept me going along the Kungsleden in the winter of 2007 (www.i907.net). Rock solid stability, a bit odd to setup solo though when your cold. I never had any problems with the tent. It was very easy to spot at night with all it's reflective lines. Plenty of space for one person and gear or two people. Snow anchors help tremendously if your camping in high wind. I recommend getting the footprint as well.
