    Lightweight tent that doesn't use trekking poles

    I have the Tiger Wall 2 Platinum. I mostly use it for hiking/camping on long trails. Excellent tent - very light and easy to set up alone. Im 6'1 and 190 or so and there is LOTS of room for me plus gear inside - plus you have two vestibules to store your dirty gear out of the main tent. My...

He reported that land had been leased up by people offering guided...
