Summary:
Excellent tent for warm to hot climates. Because of the venting on the tent it will get cool inside, so if it's too cold then so are you. Easy set-up and maintenance. Perfect backpacking tent as well, compact and light.

Summary:
Without a doubt, the best hot weather tent out there. Too bad MSR didn't pick it up when the bought Walrus. If you can get your hands on one, DO! I agree, it is such a good warm weather tent you will be COLD in temps below 40. I have had mine for 2 years and as with all Walrus tents it is very well made and I plan on keeping for my lifetime....at least.

Summary:
Great Tent, especially for warmer weather due to its expance of mesh screens. Ive used this tent on the beach and in the mountains and it does well in both places. I would not reccomend for places where night time temps drop below 40 F. Great Value, but I found it for 56 dollars!!!! at www.altrec.com. If you are a desert hiker this tent should fit your needs.

BUY IT FROM WWW. ALTREC.com!!!!!

Summary:
Quick to set up, this tent is great for hot weather camping. Also, it kept me dry during a 3 hour downpour in which 2.8 inches of rain fell.
