Very Well Made...

This tent is a tank, but in a good way. It's not the lightest tent for the job, but has so many little plus's I feel it's worth it. The ventilation system is great. I have been held up in this tent during snowstorms with my partner, cooking under the vestibule, packs under the other end of the fly with all our sleeping gear and clothing and did not feel closterfobic. It also retains heat inside more then any other tent I have had. I have not had the chance to use it in very high winds yet, but am sure it is up to it. I do however ask my partner to carry the fly if I'm carrying the tent, to help even out the load if we are going on multi-day backpacking trips.
