>>162125I've always felt that the tent shouldn't weigh in at more than 3 lbs a person. Lighter is easier if you're shorter (duh,) but some days you just need a bomber tent.
>>162137>>162138I'm a larger guy (6'2") and I have a Hubba Hubba, and I've got loads of room to stretch in all directions. MSR definitely makes a good tent, but after 4 years and a few winter camping trips, one of the poles is starting to crack. Haven't investigated the warranty process yet.
>>162297Yes, that would be too heavy. REI or MEC make more reasonably priced light tents. There's also the option of sewing your own Ray Jardine style tarp tent and using a pair of hiking poles/trees for support. Pic related.
