Great Backpacking Tent!5
I just took this tent on a three day backpack trip to above 12,000 ft. It was the perfect weight. It fit two people and two mid-sized dogs in it just fine. Nice and cozy! It faired very well against constant wind and rain. Bone dry inside! I would definately recommend this tent!

small and funny5
I like to travel lite, this tend is perfect for that, you should be carefull with the instructions about the corners or you will get flooded, I love the exclamation symbol in the side of the tent.

Great for lite use4
Just took this tent on a 7 day kayaking trip and it worked well for the most part.
We had many days of rain and on a few days the rain got heavy and the tent let some water seep through, not too much though.
The fly-out wings on the rain fly are a blessing and a curse. They are nice when its raining and you have gear you want to keep covered but don't want to bring in the tent. When you aren't in need of them they tend to get in the way when entering and exiting the tent and if the zipper is all the way down you have to crawl out in the narrow space to reach it when getting out. Kind of a pain....
The next problem is probably more of my own sloppiness and not specific to this tent. When it was raining I grabbed a bag of granola and took it back to the tent, I must have dropped a few crumbs and the next camp site I set it up at had a healthy fire ant population. That morning I woke up to ants all over the tent- how did they get in? They literally chewed holes through the tent, 6 in all. Never bring any food into your tent if there is even the possibility of ants being around.
So its a decent tent and pretty darn good when you consider the price but if you are going to be doing any serious treking, you might consider something else.
