Black Diamond Mesa

Ranked #9 - 3-Season Tents
July 18, 2010
All in all I am very pleased with Mesa's performance to date, however I do find it takes up some real estate in my pack and the vestibules are on the small side for me
Pros:
Ease of pitch
Spaciousness of the interior
Does not leak
Cons:
Vestibules are too small in my view. I would like to see them being able to be pegged out about 100 mm (4 in) further from the inner.
Pole stuff sack is too small for the poles.
Packed size or rather packed shaped when using the supplied stuff sack.
The ease with which I was able to rip the stuff the sack.
