Hi, I really like the look of this tent, and am seriously considering purchasing it. I know that they are new for this year, so there are not any reviews for them yet. I am planning a thru hike on the AT in the spring of 2010. I know this is a 3 season tent, and would like to bring it along. Would this be as good as any other lightweight 3 season tent? I am a little leary as to how it would do in the rain

Hi Jason, The reason that i didn't care for the tarptent contrail was also the durability. I have read and talked to some people that have used them and they love them. As far as the Big Agnes tents go, i feel that they are also not very durable in the long run. The design of them just seemed real flimsy. I also agree that the vestibule is small, and also felt too cramped inside. Thanks for the info and opinion on the MSR Skinny One. I think that it will be the tent that i am going to probably go with._________________________Cool - best of luck on the AT!! - Greg
