The tent body is almost all mesh, except for the floor. Definitely not waterproof! The rainfly is translucent, and is very definitely very waterproof. Leave the fly off and you'll let a lot of air in on nice nights. Enjoy the stars. Put the fly on and keep ALL the rain out. Hope that helps.

It's a screen door on a submarine. ;) The Mountain Hardwear Light Wedge has some see through panels in the rain fly.
