So I have a Tarp Tent Notch and a Big Agnes Fly Creek UL2. I have used both a good bit but i've only used the Notch in snow and that was only 2 inches of snow. Seeing how it rarely snows a substantial amount in GA I haven't been able to test the Fly Creek since I bought it. Since winters here are so unpredictable, you don't know if your gonna get a dusting or a full blown snow storm in the mountains. I will be leaving in February to thru hike the AT and can't decide which one will be better in snow. I'm thinking the Fly Creek might be a little stronger since it uses a pole system instead of trekking poles. But I really like the fast setup of the Notch. What do y'all think? Has anybody used them in snowy conditions before?
Thanks in advance
