This is an excellent tent. I spent a night with a group of Scouts next to a highway. Not only did we deal with 40+mph winds but there was the occasional 18 wheeler. The Eureka Apexes took a battering from the wind, I slept like a baby. I have used this tent in the N Georgia mountains (ice on tent) and the pouring rain. The two vestibules are fantastic, we use on for storage and the other for entry.

In fact the only drawback I have found is that it is a bit hard to get out of the tent fly when the fly is wet, without getting a bit damp. But once you get used to the necessary gyrations you can do it in style. I would highly recommend this tent to anyone for four seasons. Just remember with all the room you have, you have a rather large footprint. But when you are waiting out a pouring rainstorm, it is worth it.
