Title: Re: Hilleberg Tents
Post by Jim J Solo on Dec 21st, 2017 at 5:07pm
I liked my Akto solo on my last October solo. Very sound tent. Quick and easy to deploy in bad weather. Rainfly, tent, and ground cloth are all tied together, so nothing flying away in the wind. The tent body can be taken down from the inside during a rain to store it away dry. At 4# complete it's not the lightest, but I doubt anything else is sounder. As with most 4 season tents it's not for the hottest days. Roomy enough for me at 6' and using a new 20 deg Western Mountaineering bag, I was never cold. Sweet bag too by the way, light and lofty. My 2 most recent kit indulgences.
