I have been looking for a ultra light, highly visible tent, with excellent ventilation for summer and suited for snow. Si-Nilon fabric is UV durable and it packs up very compact. For snow use I have replaced the optional floor with a zip-on/off AL reflective tarp for increased warmth. A snow pit can be dug to attract the cold air by partially opening the floor above the pit. Awesome shelter, just wish for another window-zipped inside, zipped vent covers and longer peg loops.
