Black Diamond Lighthouse Tent 2-Person 3-Season
March 21, 2010
I've had this tent for 3 years now, and living in Seattle, it's seen quite a few rainstorms up in the Cascades. I've slept through nights that left the trail near my camp a boggy mess 3 inches deep in mud and left mud spatters 2 feet up the sides of the tent, and it hasn't leaked one bit. I seam-sealed it well when i first bought it, and I refresh the seam-sealer and spray on a DWR renewer annually, and it stays dry as a bone inside. I always sleep with my girlfriend, and even with our combined breath output, we've only ever experienced the mildest condensation - not enough to cause drips, just enough to be noticeable - even with the windows zipped up tight in a lashing rain. I know that user experience varies, but if you take care of this tent, and don't set it up in an area likely to turn into a pond when heavy rains come, you should be just fine. I've slept in both down and synthetic bags, and while synthetic are always better for me (I sweat like a bastard every night, at home or on the trail--just my body chemistry), I've only ever dampened my bags from the inside out while in this tent, never the other way around.
