I'd consider the Sierra Designs Clip CD 2 - technically a 2-person tent but at about 4 lbs I think it might work for you. Only $150 too (last years model). Not free standing though if that is a hang-up for you. I believe this is a favorite with thru hikers. With 2 people in this tent they'd better be pretty darn good friends!! I have the 3-person version of this tent....which works well for two people. http://www.campmor.com/webapp/commerce/command/ProductDisplay?prrfnbr=29352439&prmenbr=226 There is also a true one-person in this same line for $120 (again, last years model) http://www.campmor.com/webapp/commerce/command/ProductDisplay?prrfnbr=29352440&prmenbr=226 I have a friend who *swears* by the REI-branded tents too. You might look thru the REI site - they seem to have tents that look a whole lot like many more expensive tents. Again, I've heard they are very good tents for the $$. Here is an example of one of theirs - under 4 lbs, 2 person, $170. http://www.rei.com/online/store/ProductDisplay?productId=47600029&storeId=8000&catalogId=40000008000&langId=-1 Certainly not the high-end tent like a Bibler...but 1/4 of the price too. I suppose one can argue you get what you pay for... Of course, not connection to any of the product/companies mentioned.... *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
