I did end up with the Kelty Green River 6 and at very good price ($250). My challenge now is to get it in, setup and seam sealed before next weekend's Scout trip. I also plan to use it for the Bonnaroo festival this year. That will be a test on how well it stays cool. Not it's strength from what I read, although I do have an awning to put some shade on it and will probably get a fan to help too.

Looks like the only real thing to worry about is the fiberglass poles, but it sounds like Kelty is very good about replacements. I know that does you no good out in the field if one breaks. I may try to order one to have a spare on hand.

Anyone ever try a piece of copper (or other) tubing to do a quick repair?

I've spent days finding a tent and feel pretty good about what I got so far. Now on to care and cleaning.

Thanks for the input.
