DO NOT BUY
By Mr Mountian
Ranked #556 - 4-Season Tents
September 11, 2007
I was on a mountianeering expidition in the Chugach range in Alaska and lived in this tent for 3 months. Out of the 3 tents in our group 12 out of 15 poles broke (even though the tents were cared for and set up with the utmost care). The vestibule is poorly designed (it can not be made fully taught easily-you have to jerry rig it) and the seams have a tendency to rip-plus its about as expensive as you can get AND when we talked to mountain hard wear we were blown off...dont buy this tent, you will regret it.
