The North Face Moraine 33 Tent 3-Person 3-Season

Slightly weird luxury for 2

By Backcountry.com Employee September 5, 2007

I bought this to be our travelling tent for the back of the motorcycle. It packs pretty small, especially if you pack the soft parts in a separate compression sack. The tent's shape is weirdly asymetrical, with one side longer than the other, but it's so big that isn't much of a problem, apart from gear storage at your feet needing to be all on one side. The picture doesn't really show the whole thing, but the entire canopy is mesh, so with or without the fly the ventilation is superb. My single complaint would be that the vestibules aren't very big, and the internal pockets are in weird and not necessarily useful places.

All in all a very good purchase that made us much more comfortable on our long trip.
