Oh boy, I hate to stay away for a month and then come and ask a question...
Anyway, my school is looking to flesh out its (really pathetic) camping equipment stock. So, they are researching tents etc. Since I'm the "free agent" at the moment, guess who gets to do it...
It must be 3 season, waterproof, cheap(ish), 5-7 man and novice friendly.
it also does not have to be ultralight. NOT ULTRALIGHT.
I've looked at the http://www.summits.co.uk/acatalog/co..._Solana_5.html
Aztec Solana 5

Trail Dome 6
and the http://www.summits.co.uk/acatalog/co...amma_650_.html
Vango Gamma 650
thoughts? again, this is for school use.

Oh, and, I really enjoyed camping/hiking/getting soaked back in October, got my nest and slept out in the hammock for a week straight (then the rains started and my tarp leaks and I have no time to fix it so I'm inside now I've been SUPER busy so haven't been able to hang out around here.
