Kowidd752682 - I read your question and even though I know it's been a while since you've posted it if figure it would do good to others to post this review. when purchasing a tent such as the ev 2, keep in mind that this is a tent specifically designed for high altitude mountaineering. if you want a true four season tent you should probably look into some of the other models. this is a single wall tent. this means that there's no mesh to ventilate during hot summer days/nights. Although there is vents at the top and sides of the tent, it's designed to retain heat well. if you live anywhere where heat is a factor, this tent may be way to warm in the summer. It's an awesome tent for sure, but to anyone purchasing a 4 season tent, you may be better buying a three season like the trango 2 unless you plan on doing some heavy winter camping! happy buying!
