Good evening,
I own a Eureka 3 season Mountain Pass 3 person tent. My original stuff bag is totally dismantled over the years. Would a compression dry sack do the work to reduce the size? If so, what size would you recommend for the measurement of: Pack size: 20' * 7 Weight: 7lbs * 8oz?
Thanks

Your packed tent takes up about 770 cubic inches (thank you for providing the measurements), which is about 12 liters. You can go with a small, but getting it packed into the bag might be a little tough since you'll have to stuff it just to get it to fit. A better choice would be the medium, with a max liter size of 14. You could easily stuff the tent into the bag and then, in theory, compress it down to a minimum of 275 cubic inches (4.5 liters). You won't get that without a press or some significant applied weight, but you will get the tent seriously compressed, maybe by as much or more than 2/3 the original size.
