Ultimate snow camper

By CaptainStokes Ranked #1790 - Tents February 8, 2006

I bought my Mega Light three years ago and have used it on Shasta, Rainier, and an 8-day ski traverse of the Sierras. It has been a great purchase. The tent shines in the snow, after you set it up you can carve out sleeping platforms, tables, and a deep entryway so you can stand up tall while changing. Other benefits of floorless tents: You can set up your stove inside, you don't have to worry about spilling food, and when nature calls at 2am you just have to unzip your bag a little ways and take care of business lying down! I was at first skeptical of the ski pole coupler but it works perfectly. The tent does surprisingly well in wind, but strong gusts can get sketchy—anchor it well! It packs down incredibly small, sometimes you have to rummage around for it in your pack!
