Tent Review--Marmot Earlylight 2 Person Tent
By nwd4683558
Ranked #692 - 3-Season Tents
June 18, 2011
I've already used the tent twice in less than a month since I've owned it. The first trip was a 4 day camping trip. The tent performed well although it did collapse once in the 40+ mph wind. I reoriented the tent so that it would be into the wind, and it worked great. The second trip was for an overnight backpacking trip. The tent is super light weight and quite easy to strap to the back of a backpack. The tent would be pretty tight for 2 people, but for myself and all of my gear it worked flawlessly. The 2 vestibules are nice too. It is nice that the tent comes with it's own footprint and gear loft. Finally, the tent has doors on both sides so it makes ingress/egress a snap.
