Sierra Designs Lightning Tent - 2-Person, 3-Season

Sierra Designs has always made phenomenal tents and this one is no exception. Somehow they have made it extremely light, and yet roomy and comfortable, with no scrimpy on details. As an often solo adventurer, it is nice to have a real tent, as opposed to the coffin-like sacks that pass for single person tents. Also, the best products I own have been "Backpacker Magazine Editor's Award" which this one won in 2004. Don't worry, it is not dated in the lease.

Took this on a self-contained bicycle trip. Coped with a terrible wind/rain storm. Tent did well. Room inside for four panniers and me. Recommend seam tape sealing the fly just in case.

I backpack by myself and this tent is very easy to set up and it's light weight

Went on three day trek in the AT and used this tent (just bought it), had no problems with it. It was easy to set up, and we even got a few inches of snow and it held up fine to that as well!!!

great little tent!! very light and easy to pack up. the fly zipper is difficult to open from inside, gets caught on the fabric. couldn't believe how light my pack was!!!!!!
