The North Face Vario 23 Tent 2-Person 3-Season
perfect

Ranked #912 - 3-Season Tents
April 14, 2008
This tent is under rated by most. The site has it wrong in the description, the new version has two doors - a big improvement from the one described in the previous review. Two doors, two vestibules, and two vents so air can move through. Because of the extra ceiling that extends from the top, you can leave your door part way open to let even more air through on a humid night. A real bonus is that it comes with a compression sack, a rare thing with tents. If you take the poles out you can pack it down to the size of some 15 degree down sleeping bags. Perfect for fastpacking and climbing. Contrary to what you might read, it does have two doors! I promise!!
