Eureka! Timberline Outfitter 6
Above: The current Timberline Outfitter 6, which may differ slightly from the version reviewed.

Rating: rated 3 of 5 stars
Price Paid: $325

The tent was spacious, fairly easily too set up by 1 person with practice. Fairly waterproof and windproof except the last trip elk hunting. It lasted through one major wind and rain storm followed by two 6in snow falls which melted.

The last wind storm was the doozy which started about 9pm and lasted through about 7am the next morning. We were camped on a ridge top and the winds according to the Forest Service were gusting up to 82 miles throughout the night. Hundreds of trees came down many in the 40in plus range. Massive amount of damage.

The rainfly eventually completely shredded even though it was ripstop nylon. The poles bent but held. The tent itself did tear only because the guy next to me pushed his cot into the side of the tent to keep it from heaving in and out so violently causing the tent to tear because of the cot end protruding. If that had not happened I could have straightened the poles out and bought another rainfly.

That was the most vicious windy rainy and snowy {more rainy} elk season we have had in the central Oregon Cascades. Yeah, I love the tent. Just didn't expect that kind of wind.
