I used this tent to backpack around Britain it has done the Pennine Way, Coast to Coast, Peddars Way, Cumbrian Way, West Highland Way, and Norfolk coastal walk. I also have used it in deep snow, up mountains in the wild and on a weekly basis in my work. It is an excellent tent highly recommended above most modern ones of this price range.

Many People would argue that because you have to put the inner up first, it is not as good for protection in the rain, I disagree, It is a lightweight water resistant inner of which can be erected under trees. The outer is then clipped into place with six easy to use clips, and then you can place the tent where you want. You do not have to wrestle with small tubes fitting them onto short pegs!
The down side to this is the weight, it is not the heaviest and not the lightest of tents, but for the durability and ease of erecting and putting away, it is a good purchase.
