"Black Diamond created the Squall Tent for those who need a spacious, burly shelter to handle anything from an average winter camping day to a Himalayan base camp. A unique pole design adds strength while the dual vestibules provide a place to stash your gear out of the rain. Black Diamond added adjustable vents to let you bring in the cool air on a hot day or seal out the cold when a storm blows through."

Reviewed by Aaron Fredrick, Jun 30, 2009

"Bought this tent and am returning it after setting it up in the yard. It seems to be a great tent, and would probably keep it, but it's not strong enough for my needs. Bought this tent for Aconcagua, but there is no way this tent would hold up in 80+ mph winds."
