Good so far | |

| Used this tent for the first time this past weekend at Fall Creek Falls in TN. Temperatures dropped to slightly below freezing and the tent managed to provide some warmth (which was verified by the blast of cold air after opening up the vestibule in the morning...almost as good as coffee). Condensation on the inside of the tent was non-existent, however there was quite a bit frozen to the inside of the fly. I'd rather it be there though than almost dripping on me like with my old Kelty. The tent seems very long, which is a plus to me, as it leaves plenty of room for misc stuff near your head. Setup is a breeze, and despite the fact that it isn't free standing, its very sturdy in a fairly strong wind. I also expect that it will do well in a storm. It packs down nicely and is much lighter than my previous tents. The only real downside I've experience so far is the lack of headroom. Even sitting up at the door of the tent where the roof is the highest, my head still touches, and I'm only 5'10''. I'd also probably recommend against getting the rectangular gear loft, as the angle of the roof of the tent almost makes it unusable, at least with the ways I've tried to rig it. It is either at too much of a slant one way, or killing your head room the other. Lastly, I'd say that this tent is def not a two person tent, unless your very, very well acquainted with your tent mate. Even then, it'd be a little uncomfortable I'd think. | |

So Far - So Good !! | |

First time set-up in the backyard was pretty straight forward. This is not a free-standing tent and requires 8-10 stakes. The tent is open and airy without the fly; well closed-in with the fly in place. The fly took some time to figure out on the first go-round, but I got the hang of it quickly. There is a nifty little plastic window on the fly to peek out to check on weather and critters in camp. At 6'2", I had to get on my hands and knees to enter thru the vestibule, not terrible, but not something I would like to do over and over... Looking forward to getting out in the wilderness with this tent. | |

"Fantastic tent!" | |

| This tent is MHW, so it is going to be a well made tent. It is extremely light. Brilliant design. The aluminum Atlas poles are superlight and strong. The mesh is perfect for stargazing without the fly. I am 5'11"ish and i feel like it wouldn't be long enough if I was a few inches over 6 feet, but it fits me perfectly. Thanks to the water repellent coating, it dries VERY fast. Very rugged. EXTREMELY easy set up. Even a window in the rainfly to check the weather, let the morning sun wake you, and to check if the beef jerky commercial bigfoot is roaming near your campsite. Not really for 2 people. More like 1 with gear or 2 primordial dwarves. | |

"Four point five pounds!" | |

| I did a bit of research before buying this tent, especially since it is my first nice backpacking tent. It's not a free standing tent but hasn't been a hassle thus far, plus at this price point you get a lighter tent. Construction is solid, the poles are top shelf and the rain fly is manageable. It packs up really small, actually, only uses half of the included sack if you store the poles separately (I recommend packing it that way). My only complaint is that the footprint, which is sold separately (lame), doesn't line up as well as you'd expect. | |

Just went packin at 10,000ft with some hard wind without a problem. My hiking buddy is 6'4" and managed to fit in there with me, and we parked the dog in the vestibule without issue. For such a featherweight tent, it sure sacks up against the weather! | |
