Great for different activities

I really like this tent. It's pretty heavy on the back, but my car carries it just fine. Doing the fly and footprint thing is lightweight, but tricky at first to set up. I set this tent up for a few days and left it in constant light rain, only put in the two stakes for the doors, and no water got inside!!! Final thought: really like the tent, sets up easy and does its job in the rain, and is an awesome tent for those of us who don't really want to go ultra-light, but want the ease and assurance of a free standing tent. I'd buy it again.
