What are the thoughts on this tent? The local store will have it for $175 during an upcoming sale, and I like it, but haven't stopped searching. I'm going on a SoBo thru-hike this summer and need a new tent.
I'm not too fond of single wall or tarptents and I'm mildly claustrophobic so bivy sacks are out of the question. This tent weighs in around 5lbs, so its on the heavier end, but I like the large vestibule and advertised "waterproof-ness."
That said, what does everybody think? Are there similar tents that would be lighter? Does anybody have experience with this tent? Sorry if these are stupid question, but I haven't had to personally shop for a tent like this before.
A more general question: Do tents with generous amounts of mesh have condensation problems like single wall tents?
Thanks!
