I have had my Hammerhead for over a year now and it has kept me warm and dry through many a dreary night. When pitched tautly this tent can withstand heavy winds and precipitation. I have also found that when all mesh panels are zipped up the Hammerhead makes a winter worthy shelter for two. From an early season blizzard in Glacier Park to 40 mph winds blown of of Lake Superior in the Porcupine Mountains, this tent has proved itself worthy. I agree, 7 lbs. is a lot of weight, but I rather be safer overall and comfortable at night than take a few lbs off the back. Isn't that what Excedrin is for?
