"This is a great tent if you want something this big. I was looking for a good 4 season 2 man tent and had heard that this had just the right amount of room for 2 plus gear. Well that was a little bit of an understatement. This 3 person tent is great for 3 people."

"I leave in eastern Canada and I use my tent 30 to 40 days per year, mostly during the months of August and September. It often rains and the climate is very humid and windy. The temperature can reach 80 during the day and 40 during the night. We use it for trekking expedition and sea kayaking."

Reviewed by Gary Todd, Nov 02, 2004

"A big roomy tent, with lots of little storage pockets. Mostly usable vestibules front and back. Factory replacement of broken poles has been excellent. A bit heavy for non-motorized travel. Ventilation needs improvement. Entrance and exit is not graceful. Doors are held open with figity little straps."

"Pretty darn comfy. There's a whole lot of room in the Trango and plenty of pockets to store stuff in. I searched for some time to find the best tent at this price and it came down to this or the Marmot Thor. Given the Easton poles in the Trango you get a bit more strength hence my decision."

Trango 3.1
Reviewed by Jonathan DeMoor, Jun 15, 1998

"This is an incredible tent, well worth the $ and extra weight. I lived for an entire summer with my buddy in it while treeplanting in northern Alberta and have taken it backpacking on several occasions. It is easy to set up, virtually bomb-proof once standing and keeps everything (wind, rain, bugs) out completely."
