Black Diamond Firstlight Tent 2-Person 3-Season
OK for One Person in Dry Weather

This tent is good for one person in dry weather. If it rains, however, the walls will get damp. If it rains a lot, there will be puddles of water on the floor. In damp, cool weather, with the flaps closed, expect condensate inside. Also, I'm barely 5'5" and I could use more length to the foot print. And don't plan on a second person unless you don't mind them sleeping on top of you (not a bad idea, maybe, depending on who your with). Having said all that, it does keep the mosquitoes and black flies out, is extremely light and compact, is quick and easy to set up and take down, is bright and pleasant inside, and is suprisingly durable - i've had mine for three summers and have used it extensively with only mild stretching to the tent walls and only a few small holes in the flap. Again, maybe a good choice for one-person summer dry weather camping.
