lightweight tent

Ranked #517 - 3-Season Tents

Great tent for the right use. Just enough room for two sleeping pads and a few knickknacks. The vestibule is big enough for boots and things but not really for a whole pack. Packed up it takes less room than my 4 season fly alone, and minmum weight was just over 3 lbs. I'm not a big fan of the pole hubs but they do work.
Bottom line is this is a fantactic tent for light and fast trips where your just sleeping in it. If you want to hang out and lounge around then it's a bit small. Think of it as a 2 person bivi!
