BEST TENT I'VE OWNED!!!!

By Ranked #1207 - 3-Season Tents July 27, 2009

I've used many different styles and brands of tents when cmaping and hiking. I can confidently say this is the best tent I've used over my many years of hiking and camping. It's really light weight and provides really good cross ventilation for those warm nights, even with the fly on. There are three external vents that are on the fly that allow you to have them open or closed. I've found on the more chilly nights in late fall, the tent is actually noticablly warmer with the three vents closed. And the mesh part of the tent still allows good ventilation. I've never had a problem with any condesation. Took this tent on a 3 day backpacking trip in the Adirondacks witha a group of friends and absolutely loved it. There is enough space for two people. (i.e. a 5'5" person and a 6' person fit well) Sleeping pads could overlap at the back of the tent, but I've never really found it to be much of a problem at all. The vestibule area is spacious enough to handle a big 75 liter backpack and a few other items as well. If you are using two people in the tent, you might find it a bit crowded with all your packs right outside your door. (Depends on how big your packs are) I would recomend getting like a shower curtin or something to that effect for a tarp on the inside of the tent. This tent is much easier to set up as well because of the hub sections connecting the poles, which makes for fast set up and break down. I've been in pouring rains and moderate winds (5-10mph) and in the hot warm nights as well and this tent has performed outstanding to many other tents I've tried.

I definately recomnd this to both solo and double hikers and campers. It works well if you are solo cause everything fits inside nicely and nothing has to be outside except your shoes.
