Summary
The Marmot Thor 3P is one of the best 4-season expedition tents you can buy. If you're looking to do some serious winter camping then you should definitely consider purchasing this tent.
Pros
- Spacious design
- Quality construction
- Easy to set up
Cons
- A few ounces on the heavy side
Ever since I first took my Marmot Thor 3P tent up into the Alaska backcountry I have loved its solid quality design and construction. It sets up in minutes to protect you from the wind and cold. If you have the time to attach guidelines and anchors then the Marmot Thor can turn into an impenetranable shelter in the harshest blizzard conditions.
It packs up nicely and weighs in at around 9 lbs. Although you could cram 3 adults in the tent under austere conditions, it comfortably houses 2 adults with some additonal gear.
I've had my tent for three years and it still looks like new and is just as reliable as they day I bought it. There are a lot of great 4-season tents out there but for me, this is the last mountaineering tent I will ever buy.
