The North Face Spectrum 23 Tent 2-Person 3-Season

The North Face Spectrum 23 Tent 2-Person 3-Season

Rating for this product: 4 June 9, 2008

The trail size and weight are great so you can easily carry the tent in your backpack. Set-up and packing are also quick and simple. Very stable even in strong winds, so you can sleep soundly at night without any flapping sounds. I couldn't believe before that condensation up in a mountain could be a problem for this tent, but it's true. Not a big issue though, and can be resolved by opening up the door and allowing more air flow. I formerly used the The North Face Rock 22 and enjoyed its roomy size and double doors and vestibules, but it's heavy and bulky to carry to carry alone. The TNF Spectrum is less roomy, but comfortably fits 2 people. You can also "augment" your vestibule by making a ground sheet that can roll out and extend once you open the vestibule. This tent has less airflow and it feels warmer, which is very welcome at high altitudes. Waterproofing is dependable, and the reflective marks and glow in the dark zipper handles are nice additions, though I would personally prefer to have more reflectorized strips on the upper part of the tent. Overall, a great tent to have and I would strongly recommend buying this if you are into backpacking and climbing in non-snow areas.
