Reviewed June 9, 1997 by Giles Chamberlin

Rating:
Design: 4 Season three hoop tunnel
Sleeps: 2
Ease of Setup: OK, though flysheet is a bit fiddly
Weight: 2.6 kg
Price Paid: £300

Just come back from a stormy weekend camped high in the English Lake District. The tent performed excellently, shrugging off the wind and rain.

The porch is roomier than I at first thought -- plenty of room for cooking, and the inner could be rolled back if preparing a banquet.

Access is easy through a zip on the right hand side of the porch.

The inner goes up easily enough. The fly is no great problem, but you have to be fairly accurate in where you peg it to get nice pitch.

Overall, it seems like a strong, reliable tent: looking forward to many more years of use!
