We used it for two weeks in Alaska and the Yukon. It did just fine, although we got lucky with no bad storms. Did shed the light rains well though.
Pros
- Easy to put up and down
Cons
- Thin ground floor
- Small for even a three-man
This tent is easy to put up and take down. The ground floor is thin. We did use a ground cover, and probably always will.
We had a couple cold nights and made the mistake of closing the ceiling vents and the door screen all the way. This tent is so tight that there was a lot of condensation inside from our breathing.
This tent is on the small side. Two people and packs is about all.
