I have had a Mountain Hardware Skyview 2 for several years now. It is a double wall, full fly 3 1/2 season tent with excellent ventilation and a large vestibule. I chose it after being dissatisfied with single wall tents. You definitely have less condensation inside the tent. The last thing you need in cold, windy conditions is damp clothing or gear. I agree completely with earlier comments concerning the use of a wool hat and midweight thermals, socks and gloves. It is really handy to already be "suited up" in case you have to venture outside during the night, thus not loosing as much body heat as those mad dashes with only bottoms on.
