I bought this tent and in the first field test I got rain during all night. In the first hours I got only a problem of condensation, and spray effect due a rain the fly. The water run in the nylon inside and spur in the zipper, and the tent got a little wet. After the first hours the seams near the poles, used to reinforced the stakes, failed and the tent was in a flood. So I get up, got a plactic under my term rest and other stuffs and sleep again. In the following morning I realize that in some spots the floor was full of water due a water pressure outside. I was using the optinal plastic ground floor. This ground floor is small for K2, even though is sold to this model. I got some wind during the night, and when I dismount the tents the gold paint in the allumminum poles has gone in some. I don't know how it will resist to snow.
