"My amp goes up to 11 :)" You stole my line!

I think it is hard to look at something in a store and decide that the item will be perfect out in the bush. I have an especially hard time with tents. Until you live in one for a bit it is hard to say whether the interior room is enough, the height high enough, ... Lighter weight tents are just too small for me, I prefer some space. I'm thinking of buying one of these http://www.cookecustomsewing.com/lean2.shtml for the non-bug season. The weight is under 3 pounds and there is a LOT of room. I've toyed with the idea of making my own, but that is a lot of nylon to sew. In 2007 I hope to buy or make my own.

Given the choice between weight and space, I would opt for more space. The tarp, outside of bug season, seems to be the best of both worlds.
