Finally!

By Gabe Joyes Ranked #317 - 3-Season Tents March 25, 2009

Everyone is always excited about how "this tent fits people over 6 feet tall!" Well I'm finally excited to say that this is the perfect ultra-light tent for people under 6-foot. Backpacker says that two sleeping pads overlap at the end, but two thermarest prolite 3's fit in perfectly with no amount of overlap. There is head room for two people to sit up, you just can't be a big person. REI has the XL version of this tent, go check it out there. There are lots of neat little features like the jake's feet (where the poles attach to the tent body on the bottom). Bonus: my tent for the packaged weight is 3.5 pounds. Only a couple small complaints: the stuff sack it comes with is huge. why? its a small tent? I'm going to use a compression sack instead. The tent comes with 6 stakes, just enough to stake it out, but it also comes with two guylines and no stakes for them. I guess I'll either use rocks or buy a couple MSR needle stakes. Oh well. All in all, a great tent. Rightfully the "Top Ultralight" by Backpacker.
