Solid Performer, Warm & Stable w/ Venting Options

This tent is a great 4-season tent. It is like a VE-25 on steroids. It is larger, the poles are larger, the tent and fly-material feel very substantial. New style has great venting options.

I purchased mine to take my wife and 1-yr old car-camping in Sequoia/Kings in November. It got cold at night, down to the upper 30's and it slept fairly warm. Although I purchased it for family camping in off-seasons, this is a more serious tent than that. I have been backpacking for 15 years and have spent many week-long trips in the high country (Sierras, Rockies, etc). I would say this tent easily compares to my Marmot Bastille. In fact, I would say that for sheer ruggedness and stability, it bests the Bastille. Trouble is it's a little heavy. Three guys would be cozy in this tent, but there's more space than a ve-25. The vestibule is pretty big, but you'll still have to crouch way down if you want to use it as an airlock. 2-doors, w/mini vestibule in rear.

Cabelas has an olive-green version if you don't like screaming yellow (I would have rather had the green).
