Here is my hiking background with tents. I started out with a eureka tent and it was too heavy. Then went to a hammock tent and thought it was way to awkward to sleep in. Then I used the just the fly for the hammock tent and a footprint and loved it but it was not tall enough to sit up in to cook breakfast in. Then I found this beauty...this tent allowed me to carry very little weight while providing a tent like structure that I could sit up in. This "E"house is gr"E"at. The only draw back to this that I found was that just like a tent it got too hot inside. When I woke up hot I unzipped the vent and the heat that had been trapped exited the structure. Great Shelter for ultra-lighters. Thanks MSR. | |
