Very light weight. Very good in the wind, the external guy ties were appreciated when the wind was really howling. Easy to set up. Very roomy inside. This was a very nice for a recent trip to Alaska. I have an older model with only one door which is a minus. The built-in vestibule doesn't go all the way to the ground and requires that you get very low to enter. I wish I had waited for the new two-door model and/or had had the money to buy the expedition model.
