"Alpenlite 2XT Tent"
From Backcountry.com:
"Sure you can use any 4-season tent at the height of summer, but many of them bottle up heat and don't have enough vents to keep you cool. Eureka's Alpenlite 2-Person, 4-Season Tent has 2 roof vents, 4 wall vents, and a door vent that makes it versatile enough to use all year and they really mean all year. In extreme conditions, clips and post and grommet corner attachments promise a fast set up. The bombproof fly locks out cold air, snow, and sleet. Storage features include 4 pockets, 4 gear loft loops, and 1 flashlight loop so you can stay organized."

This Alpenlite is a true bargain. I found it on sale (reduced almost $100) at NORTHERN MOUNTAIN SUPPLY on the internet. It is extremely light and durable. I've already used it on trips to the mountains and deserts of So."
