This is my family tent for 3 season use. I don't use it in winter or on glaciers as it has no vestibule. The timberline 4 is very roomy and comfotable. It sets up easily and tight. The rainfly has good coverage and is a no-brainer to put on. The materials and workmanship of this tried and true free standing A-frame tent are top notch. It comes in a very pleasant green/white color combo. It also comes in a 2 door model and my one door has a very large rear window for good ventilation. In a 50 knot wind it held up well and flapping nylon was minimal. If you are tired of tiny 40ft2 floor space and less tents, you will love the room in this one.

I hope Eureka doesn't ever cancel this tent. They have created some real losers but this is not one of them. The Timberline series tents rate with the best on the market and are priced well.
