Thinking about investing in a light four season tent like the Alpinist and using it as a year round shelter. I have never used a four season before and I am wondering if the tent will too much during the summer? Would anyone recommend another make or model?

Jordan, took it beach camping at the end of August... once the sun came up, it was sweltering, but you can avoid that by venting the tent. Good luck if it rains though!

check out something that is convertable. That way when you need a 4 season tent you have one and in the summer you can leave part of the tent at home and have a lighter stll useable tent.
