Gear Review
They make a solid tent

I swear by Sierra Designs tents. My old Sierra Designs Tent held up for over 10 hard years of abuse. I finally broke down and got a new one last year: the Electron. I've got to say, this is an unbelievable piece of gear. Double doors with 2 vestibules to keep gear dry and close, 360 degree open air, roomy, sharp design! I love it. It is a little on the heavier side, but I've used this both backpacking and bicycle touring without any problems.
