From EMS:
"This thing can survive any storm-it won't even sag under the load of wind-drifted snow. Other cool features: pole clips for easy pitching, buckle-reinforced vestibule zippers, plenty of organizing pockets, and double-wall construction that keeps condensation at bay. Our tester says 'After 21 nights on Mt. McKinley, I had plenty to say about this winter fortress-all of it good.' - Men's Health Gear Fall 2005. 4 ultralight Easton 7178 T9 alloy poles keep the weight to a minimum while providing great strength. Factory-hot-taped floor and fly seams. Large front vestibule with full-length support pole; rear vestibule with zip access in tent canopy. Silicon-coated fly with UVX window in front vestibule. Two Tension Shelves for storage and added strength. Full-size door with mesh and fabric. Tapered floor design for easy setup in tight spaces."

From REI:
"With a strong and durable four-pole structure, Annapurna's trim floor design is perfect for easy placement on narrow ledges and snow platforms. This is a two-person super-light tent, made strong for use in winter mountaineering-type conditions. Nylon taffeta rainfly features a polyurethane coating on the inside and a silicone coating on the outside for added tear- and UV-resistance. Large front vestibule with single entry is supported with a full-length pole; UVX, non-yellowing, clear film window allows light in and a view out. Single, full-size double D-shaped door gives you a choice of mesh for ventilation or ripstop nylon for four-season use. Rear pull-out vestibule with zipper access in canopy allows you to store gear and easily grab it from inside the tent. Pole clips save weight and allow superior ventilation between rainfly and tent; Gated Power Clips at pole intersections increase tent's stability. Two Tension Shelves™ provide increased tent strength, vestibule support and storage. Off-ground perimeter seam improves strength and tautness of pitch and forms a waterproof tub. Cantenary-cut seams create taut canopy and improve rainfly strength; back-tacked stress points add strength and durability. Water-resistant zippers are covered by stiffened zipper flaps to keep water out in all conditions. Zippers are bias-bound to keep operation smooth and snag-free with nice, even tension; zippers are less stressed so they last longer. Large stake out loops accept skis and snow pickets. Large pockets and webbing hang loops keep things organized inside the tent. Includes stuff sacks, aluminum Y-pegs, Seam Grip® and owner's manual. Average minimum weight specification is based on tent, rainfly and poles only. Closeout."

Handles rain and wind like a dream.
The only down sides are trying to take the tent down in the rain, and the condensation builds up if the tent isn't vented correctly."
