Kelty Gunnison 2 Tent: 2-Person 3-Season
Great tent for 2

This tent is perfect for 2 people. When you split the weight of it between 2 packs, its only a few pounds in each persons pack. I've heard people complain about the jakes feet style connectors at the corners... I actually love them. Once you clip the foot of the tent pole into the jakes foot connector, it stays there. This makes putting up the tent WAY easier because you don't have to worry about the poles you've already put in the corners slipping free of their grommets or whatever. The tent is extremely well ventilated and can withstand extremely heavy winds like a champ. With two people the vestibules provide more than enough room for storing packs etc. The footprint (not included) clips to the tent as well, ensuring it stays perfectly aligned. I occasionally use it as my tent when I go on solo trips in the backcountry. Its heavier than I'd like for that purpose but still totally doable, and once its set up its luxuriously roomy for one person plus all my stuff. Definitely deserves 5 stars.
