Hi! Does anyone out there own a Mtn Hardwear Habitat 3 tent? I'm fairly sure this will be my next tent purchase for car camping. I'm replacing an older REI Traildome 3 in favor of dry-entry vestibules. Here's my question - Do the side doors have opaque panels that zip over the mesh? It appears that way in pics, but I can't seem to find anything about it in all the sales descriptions and reviews I've read. Thanks for any info you can share!

I slept in that tent this past October, while on a Grand Canyon rafting trip. Yes, both the side doors have a solid inner liner that zips over the mesh. In fact, all the mesh openings on that tent can be closed up - it's a nice design if you camp in areas with lots of wind-driven dust or sand.

Thanks for that info! I ended up with a Half Dome 4, however, may still want to find a Habitat 3 - sounds like it would be great for cooler weather camping.
