Best Tent Ever

By bfish839391 Ranked #1296 - 3-Season Tents September 16, 2008

I have 10-12 different tents from all manufactures currently. Over time I have had probably 20 tents. The best tent by far I have ever had is the Skyledge 2. I am 6'3" and use it as a solo. It is a little snug on length but I put my pad in on an angle and it is fine plus by the time I am asleep I end up on my side/stomach and am not fully extended. Anyway I have had this in the heat of Moab, and the high Uintas in a two-hour downpour and have yet to get a drop of water in the tent. I recommend the footprint, it is perfect, lightweight, and adds good protection to the somewhat thin bathtub seam sealed floor. Overall for weight, functionality, and looks it is the bomb. Only buy this as a two man/woman if you are under 5'10" and weigh less than 170 lbs. I am 6'3", 190 lbs. and can only sleep in it with two people if I take either my 5 yr old, or my 8 yr old. It is the perfect one man set up, definitely not for your college buddy and you together, unless you want to be on top of each other which for some people may be what they are looking for.

Lightweight, fast set-up, durable, great for stargazing, and above all it is Mountain Hardware, need I say more?
