This review may be premature since I've only used this tent on only one spring trip, but there are no other reviews of this model on this page.

This tent appears to be a replacement model of the Mountain 24, and goes by the simple name of the Mountain Tent.

The tent is very easy to set up, especially considering it has full sleeves. There is no snagging of the poles and one person can easily slip the entire pole through the sleeves, into the eye, without having to move.

I'm 6' 5'' and fit comfortably inside. Its near vertical walls really help, as my head was not "pinched" between the floor and the head wall. In the Mt. Zirkel wilderness we had at least 3 inches of rain overnight, at times at dumping volume. Not a drop of water was found within the
tent in the morning, nor was there any condensation on the mesh to speak of. That really impressed me!

Looking forward to trying this tent out in winter, where I bet it will really shine!
