This is a bomber tent. A bit on the heavy side for a two-person backpacking tent, but can sleep three no problem and four in a real pinch. If you split it up between two people it's great.

I have now camped in it during a 35 degree horrendous downpour as well as a very hot summer nights, and everytime it has been outstanding. Ventilation is great even when all zipped up to weather a storm. This is the first year MH has factory taped their floors and flies, and so no annoying seam sealing required.

The tent has a very large vestibule, two doors, three poles and one for the vestibule, and more guy out points than I know what to do with.

Although not completely bombproof, it is possibly the best ALL weather tent around.
