The best.

Ranked #476 - Tents
October 6, 2009
This sweet tent comes in 2, 3 and 4 person varieties and it is the most thoughtfully designed, bombproof and generally sweet tent I have ever had the pleasure of using. Twin doors, twin vestibules, sensible features.
And it's really, really heavy.
This is a hunker-down-for-two-weeks-and-wait-out-the-storm tent. It's a high-altitude-basecamp tent. It's a rainy-and-windy every day sort of tent.
What it isn't: for light and fast expeditions on big (or small) mountains.
But if weight isn't an issue, you won't find a better or more bombproof tent.
