I know different tents completely. Ive got a X-dome 2 solid (50.5 oz) on order, thinking it would be a good all-around tent for all around backcountry use for my brother and law and me in Arizona below treeline. Also good for 2 person backpacking.

Ive got 11 and 8 year old girls and am wanting to take them on backpacking trips. Current tent I have is an REI Half Dome SL 3+. The Tarptent hog back (63.2 oz) looks like a nice roomy option that is light enough for packing but not cramped for car camping.

Any suggestions for an option that would cover 2 man hunting trips as well as family camping for 3 (could be packing or car camping)?

I guess another way to ask is for roomy, light, 3p, 3+ season options. Or is everything going to be tto much of a compromise?

The Tarptent triple rainbow looks to be about the same weight and footprint as the X-Dome 2, just with more floor area without the diagonal floor....

I have an x-mid 1 for solo trips.+
