Three-person, or one person and three dogs!! lol The last time I got down to get in to a tent like this I wasn't so sure I'd ever be able to get back up!! lol Look at that marvelous location...and snow still way up top...awesome! Speaking of snow, we've some to look forward to on Thursday! Take good care now!

Thanks Bruce, hope you and Otis are well? This was the first time I had set this tent up, didn’t really know what it would be like, we had hiked a good 8 miles, sadly I had to carry a 55 pound pack so I didn’t have any time to compose myself hence it was just an initial assessment. Nice spot too, surrounded by mountains, minutes after this video we were off searching in a nearby valley. Atb Bill and the three vagrants lol

Seems a great tent! I use the Vango Nitro, Meteor and Xenon tunnel tents but this with a 10,000mm HH floor is really good.

That very night we were hit with 50 mph plus winds, sleet, snow and ice rain, tent performed flawlessly. Think it’s a tent that’s been overlooked by many

@@K9OutdoorsSearchTeam It’s solid design and if it has good poles it will stand up to a lot. For the money it’s a good buy.

Just got one of these was looking for reviews online for months before and found very few. Looking forward to trying it out this weekend. Cheers for the video!

Your welcome Jake. You will be happy with the tent, it withstood crazy winds on its first night out, winds that changed direction and that were hitting us side on. Really quick to set up and peg out, it’s a warm cosy tent too. For two it’s perfect, for one a palace. Couple small niggles, tie ups for doors are a bit fiddly, bottom door near feet would be great if it had a mesh panel too. I got a Onetigris footprint that’s super light just to protect the floor.

@@K9OutdoorsSearchTeam Thanks for your reply Bill! Good to hear the tent has done you well. I totally agree that mesh for the bottom door would be ideal. Can I ask you what size foot print you purchased and did you have to tailor it to size? I am heading out tomorrow for a night to trial the tent, will use an old tarp for the footprint for a night .. Beautiful dogs by the way, nice videos 👍🏻

You could sleep in it in the wilderness. Maybe even at night.
