I am gearing up for the AT and would like to know what Tent/Tarp/Shelter is used most successfully on the AT. I am torn between going with a Canopy Tarp with separate bug net setup, or with an integrated system such as the TarpTent Rainbow, ZPack Hexamid, etc..
Any thru hikers have an opinion on ease of setup, tear down, and carry of the myriad of options available?
Has anyone packed the TarpTent or ZPack?
Tarp or Tent?
Thank you,
FOG
