"Sierra Designs gave the Lightning XT 2 Tent a unique, split-pole configuration that gives you not only a lower weight, but increased living space for comfortable nights and tent-bound days. Two doors and two vestibules give each person storage space and an easy exit when nature calls in the middle of the night. The nylon mesh walls provide maximum breathability and reduced condensation, and the Jake's Foot corners lock in poles for easy solo set-ups."
