The North Face Rock 22 Bx Tent: 2-Person 3-Season
Versatile tent
By Bill Evans
Ranked #371 - 3-Season Tents
June 27, 2011
I have used this tent on the AT (90-miles with a companion and carried one tent), paddling in Quetico Provincial Park, Canada (again two grown men), 17-day solo motorcycle trip across the west (Glacier, Yellowstone, Tetons, Colorado) and a 9-day solo motorcycle trip to Grand Canyon. It held up to all weather, is easy to set up, spacious with two men--and a temple when alone. I don't carry it when I solo trek due to the weight, but in the above situations--It can not be beat.
