A bathtub floor and factory taped seams keep you dry and 2 screened-in ceiling vents that are fully covered by upper flaps give you weather-proof ventilation. An attached vestibule with a teardrop window lets you check storm conditions and offers an excellent view while you enjoy your morning brew. Interior mesh storage pockets are placed at head-height for convenience.

Better than I imagined.
I never intended to be so jaded towards one brand as I have become towards Marmot. I had to re buy a lot of gear that was getting to old and this tent is the best tent I've used in 10 years. First night I got it in the mail we had a nasty blizzard so it got some heavy heavy snow and wind and stood up with ease. When I awoke in the morning no water in the tent, the vents work great. Has many extra pockets and ties to hook stuff up too. Vest is a little small but my pack still fits in and is to be expected from a light and bombproof tent. Will take to Denali in a few weeks and see how it stands up.

We'll hear back the end of March
I got this tent for my daughter to take to the Patagonia Cordillera, the El Cani Reserve and into the Valdivian Rainforest for nine weeks. Places where all weather conditions are possible. She was able to easily set it up in no time at all, she's only 5'2 and it's nice and light,she said it rocks.

Great Tent, great warrant
This tent is extremely easy to setup (even in the pouring rain) and has served us well through all seasons. Unfortunately, while trying to set it up in a hail storm, I broke a tent pole. This sounds like the beginning of a bad review, but it comes with some nice extra pole pieces that we were able to rig so our trip could continue with a standing tent. After getting home and sending it away for free Marmot got a new pole back to us within 4 weeks. Marmot rocks!
