Marmot Alpinist Tent 2-Person 4-Season
Marmot Alpinist
By DeanDay
Ranked #147 - 4-Season Tents
October 27, 2008
My old one has exterior sleeves rather than clips for the poles. The new clip style is better. The tent has two long poles that cris-cross, and a short third pole that stablizes the front between the two long poles near the top. It's easy to set up, sturdy, and has kept me dry in a heavy rain storm. 52 inches wide, 84 inches long, 2 people are possible, but only 1 door. Weighs 5-1/2 lbs, it's a light 2 person 4 season tent. Great for winter backpacking.
