The North Face Vario 23 Tent 2-Person 3-Season

Item #TNF3032 | 0 in Stock
3 Star Rating

Great, but condensation ruins it

By Ranked #1166 - 3-Season Tents March 25, 2009

This tent is almost perfect. Lightweight, packs ridiculously small, can stand up to brutal wind and hail, pretty spacious, and looks damn cool too. But, everywhere I used this tent from the Absarokas and Beartooths to the Wind River Range, WAY too much condensation. Made my down bag so wet in September I almost froze my butt off.
