Big Agnes Seedhouse SL1 Super Light Tent: 1-Person 3-Season
Works great, light as a feather

I went from the Mountain Hardware Meridian 1 to this tent. This tent is not only roomier, but probably half the weight as well. So far, I've used it in the Wind Rivers, Wasatch and the Uintas. No rain either time, but it keeps the bugs out nicely, ventilates fine even with the fly, and really weighs next to nothing.
Another awesome benefit: If you buy the groundcloth, you can forego the netting part of the tent and just use the fly, poles, and groundcloth for an ultralight, rain-proof alternative. It won't keep the bugs out, but when you're flying down the trail with your awesome UL setup, who cares?
