Quiet in the Wind!

Ranked #357 - 4-Season Tents
April 10, 2009
It took me a long time to learn to set up my I-tent. But with practice it has become easy. I've used it in very windy conditions in Patagonia: No wind noise due to taut skin.
I have never had condensation problems as I have with silnylon tarp tents.
I'm 5' 10" and barely fit, so I would go for the larger Ahwahnee, but I got a great buy on e-Bay.
I wish the tarp tents would use the breathable fabric, to make a lighter 3 season tent.
The I-tent works well in wind, snow, hail, ice. An amazing tent.

The "Grommet" is a snap. The female side of a 10-mm snap.
