How do the vents work? Can you zip or velcro them open or closed as conditions dictate? I am looking at this tent because I have withstood too many well below freezing, windy nights in my 3-season with lots of mesh that you cannot close up.

all the vents are independent and can be zipped closed, you can seal up the tent completely from the elements. two vents on the roof, one on the door, one at the back overlooking the real vestibule, and two on either side = tons of venting options.
