Bird Dawg, I texted you with some info. that may be helpful.
My wife and I hiked the AT with a Copper Spur and love the tent. I use a Tiger Wall when I go solo. The Copper Spur is a great tent and very sturdy but it does come with a few extra ounces to carry.
I’m 6’4” and 220lbs. I use a BA Copper Spur and love it. It’s not DCF but it’s a very good tent with enough room for me and my stuff.
This is a real loss for the ATC. Laurie is an outstanding person, a true ambassador for the trail and a great connection and resource for hikers. Best of luck to her and her husband in their future...
ULA & Z Packs are great companies with great customer service in my experience.
Belvale Creamery and Gyp’s Tavern are must stops. The hot dog cart before Belvale Creamery is also a great place. Three people in our trail family got food poisoning after eating at the Mohican...

I’m a fan of BA products and their customer service is great. The BA Tigerwall ul2 or Copper spur ul2 are great 1 person tents.
A second recommendation for ULA. I love my Catalyst.
Shoes go in the vestibule of my tent. Check them in the morning.
Same thing back at you. Hope our paths will cross in the future!
I will be there, early to mid April.
I have set it up in rain. You will get some water inside so be prepared to dry it up. The amount is minimal so it dries easily. Supposedly you can set up the fly first then the tent but I never...
I also have both tents. A CS UL3(used when my wife hikes with me) and a Tiger Wall UL2. What Rob says is spot on for those tents. I also have footprints for both and I have survived and stayed dry in...
Take a look at the BA Tigerwall UL2. About 2 lbs., double wall and free standing. Used a BA copper spur on my hike in 2015 and had 0 issues. I am a believer in BA products and their customer service...

Maybe we can get together and hike some time. I understand why your Dad won’t move (trees, hills, flowing creeks, etc..). Safe travels to you.
I’m on the Banana River in Cocoa Beach. I’ve done a little bit of Fla. hiking but most of my experience is on the AT and other mountain trails.
