Summary

Good tent, except in the rain. Always wanted a Timberline, finally got one, first use was in three days of continuous rain. The bottom door "draft tube" flap thing filled with water. There was not a way to open the door without water coming in the tent. I tried to get the annex vestibule but they stopped making them. :( Will still use it but only during nice weather.

Pros

Classic style and color
Quality materials and craftsmanship

Cons

Door design

I have the same tent and never had a rain issue with the the bottom of the door. I have used the same tent in the BWCA during a summer Tstorm and didn't have the leak
