Yah, you have created a problem for me. I did go out this weekend and looked at the North Face VE-25 expedition double wall tent. Need I say much more than I am hooked! What a marvelous tent! Now to attract the money to buy one. Man is it nice. 9 lbs 4oz, sleeps three, with 49inches of verticle sitting room and 84 inches horizontal floor area. Tested to what they report an unbelievable 200,000 cycles. It is a new double-vested design with stainless steel zippers and reported to be fantastically stable in high winds and resistant to snow loading and the stresses of expedition use. This is not much of a story but it could lead to many. Ouch,,,,,,,,, $725.00 Canadian Cheers, Philip BRADFORD R.
