There are lots of ultralight shelters out there. If they can't stand up to the weather, they aren't worth the weight in your pack, no matter how slight that weight might be. The Mountain Hardwear LightWedge 2 DP Tent may not be the absolutely lightest 2-person ultralight out there (it certainly isn't the heaviest), but it definitely has the stones to stand up to Mother Nature, even when her mood turns foul. The LightWedge even has a Dry Pitch feature that allows you to set up the fly first so you can set up the rest of the tent without it being exposed to the rain.

Best two person tent!

One of the best two man tents that I could find for the space to weight ratio. This tent held up very well to large gusts (30-40MPH) considering it is only a 2 pole + brow pole design. The tent also vents very well and condensation was not a problem. The only thing I did not like about the tent is that the door is all mesh and the vestibule serve as the "hard" door. During the wind, dust blows up under the vestibule and the finer particles get in the tent covering your bag, etc with a fine powder.
