"I originally bought this tent based on its weight and thought this would be the perfect bit of kit for winter alpine adventures in Alaska. I soon discovered that the overall floor area just isn't enough for two individuals and all their stuff in the winter."

"Weight, Ventilation, and Ease of Set-Up are all great points for the EV2. Here was my concern about the tent, the integrated vestibule. Yes it does add a few extra inches to the one-man tent (two-man in a pinch) but here was my problem. . .

I am from New England and had set it up in some of the worst weather New Hampshire can throw at it."

"As you would expect a tent sanctioned by Mr. Viesturs is not going to let you down even in the highest winds or worst conditions (hey anchors are a personal issue mofo) but the single wall ventilation always makes me sleep light if snow is heavy. Don’t even think you can share this with a partner (even with minimal gear) unless extreme intimacy is not a problem (did I include my cell# here?!?)."
