Ranked #126 - Tents
September 16, 2011
Bought this tent for a 5 day 60 mile portion of the JMT. The Sierra threw a curve ball and delivered 3 days of rain to start the hike. I was able to assemble the tent quickly in wind and rain. While there was condensation on the inside I remained warm. It stood up exceptionally well at 10k feet in wind and hail at the tree line. The directions with the tent did not say much about using the external guy lines. I highly recommend using them since they help keep the fly off the mesh. Overall great tent especially given the weight savings.
