Just got done with a multi day hike in the sawtooth mountains of Idaho. For the most part the tent did its job, however I am disappointed in the rain fly. The fly seemed to be small for the tent itself. It did not cover the tent entirely leaving open gaps no matter how tight it was cinched down. Even with the unfortunate gaps there was ventilation issues and every morning woke up with it wet and dripping through the mesh each time it was brushed up against. The vestibule is small I wasn’t able to keep gear under it without out it caving in the side of the tent. My buddy bought the same tent, was on the same hike, and the same issue with the rain fly.
I finally got out on the AT for a hike on the 100-Mile Wilderness with the 1-person tent. It was rainy with the hurricane glancing the Trail. I used sticks to try to get the rain fly away from the tent to no avail. Ended up with water inside. Also, the mesh cargo pocket inside is at the foot of the tent--not convenient. With the two-person tent there are pockets on both sides at the head of the tent in addition to the overhead "attic". The storage options were great for those of us who need a bit of help staying organized. I like the 1-person tent option, but it does need some improvements. Were corners cut to keep it below three pounds?
The materials of this tent are lightweight and durable. I appreciate most especially the cinch-down tent bag that this tent comes with.
I just took my tent for a test run on a five day backpacking trip in the Wind River Range and the tent held up well. I was disappointed at the design and functionality of the rainfly and the ground tarp specifically, however. The ground tarp is too large- it protrudes past the tent and as a result it allows for rain to collect under the tent if it is attached to the tent poles. As for the rain fly, the one door works well but it doesn’t allow for proper ventilation on the opposite side of the door or at the ends of the tent. I will now have to sew on three additional loops on those sides of the tent to allow for proper ventilation either during rain events or even just when it’s dewey in the morning. Every night of my trip I woke up in the morning with the ends of my sleeping bag wet because it would touch the end of the mesh tent and then the rain fly because the rain fly wasn’t able to be tethered away from the mesh tent on those ends.
I like this product, especially at this price point, but it needs a few modifications to make it a fully functional design.
