This very light 3-season tent is promoted as a backpacking tent, it is very appropriate for normal camping situations like car camping and canoe camping. Designed for two people, but also appropriate for one person who likes a lot of room as a solo camper, the tent is very easy to set up and putting it together is quick and straight forward, the innovative tent design can easily endure rain and wind, but there are better designed tents for use in snow or winter weather use.
One of the best features of this tent is that it weighs only 3 lbs. making it the perfect lightweight tent for all types of camping. Canoe campers as well as hikers will appreciate that. I also like this tent for the rectangular floor plan which utilizes the space for maximum usability and comfort. With this tent you will have enough room for all your dry gear as well as have enough room for comfortable sleep and movement.
