hey
thanks to all that replied to my earlier post--now the time to pick a tent--lots to consider so thats why im posting here for advice. i guess the decisions im faced with are as follows--weight vs. comfort vs. practicallity. the 3 tents that im choosing from are as follows
sierra designs clip flashlight(light weight but small vestible for storage)
dana design arja(kinda heavy but large vestibles)
mountain hardwear muir trail(middle of the road for both weight and storage)
i guess my biggest deliemma is what to look for when choosing a tent--should i be more concerned with comfort or should i be most concerned about weight(the difference between all 3 tents im considering is about 2 pounds max)
this will be my girlfriends and my first serious hike on the AT so im kinda in the dark but i figure with 2 people the consideration should be comfort over wieght--once again thanks in advance for any help offered--harvey
