Title: Re: 2 man tent Post by Traveller on Jul 6th, 2010 at 4:32am
I've used a Kelty Vortex 2 for 3 Quetico trips and have been very pleased. I think Kelty made some cosmetic changes and now calls it the Gunnison 2.1.
Priced at $189 at REI. Good for solo use (I wouldn't use it for two people). What I like: Two doors and two vestibules. Two poles (very easy set-up). Never a leak in ~30 days of use. Big enough to sit-up, spread out and be comfy. Price. What I don't like: Minor condensation issues. Fly needs guy-outs for tautness and stability. Kind of gloomy color. It always feels cloudy inside. Stability? It's never failed me, but two pole structure feels less sturdy than some of the mountaineering-type tents. Hope this helps. |
