"Slightly snug for two adults with gear, but loaded with good features and as weatherproof as I can imagine. Sets up and takes down easily, but does require stakes.
I had it in a group of tents during a very hard rain. Most of the other folks, afterwards, had gotten wet inside. The Kelty was completely dry.
My requirement was for a tent I could set up alone, in a storm, at night, tired and dehydrated. It is that easy."
"Excellent tent!! It has started to leak a little after 14 years of abuse. One design flaw, the original fiberglass poles splintered after five years, free replacement from kelty. I now use two aluminum poles cut to fit and the last unbroken kelty fiberglass pole"
