There are many things to consider when buying a tent and I'm sure others will fill you in on most of them. A few of my considerations: 1. Weight, because I also backpack so it's got to be light. 2. Quality, because it's used in a harsh environment and I want it to last. 3. A vestibule or separate dining fly, for cooking and sitting in the rain. 4. A net roof, for those clear nights so you can see the sky all night. Good luck. You can get hooked on this stuff, just like kayaks. I've accumulated 5 tents over the years. I think the best are North Face and Moss.
