Large sil-nylon tent suggestions?

[lwtickner]

Any suggestions besides tipis for large sil-nylon tent? I've seen the courthouse and warbonnet tsunami. Looking for more of the like

I bought the Courthouse this year. It's pretty awesome. Take's up very little space when packed up and could be easily compressed to take up even less space.

Are you back packing with it at all?

It’s definitely not a backpacking tent. If you split it between 2-3 guys or a llama it would be manageable.

Two poles and lots of stakes is what gets you.

Have you considered sil-poly tents? Many companies are going that way because sil-poly doesn't absorb water and stretch like sil-nylon. Fabric strength and tear resistance used to be a concern for sil-poly, but newer ripstop sil poly is now on-par with sil-nylon.

Thanks for the heads up. I don't think I've heard of it. I'll check it out. Any tent off to of your head to look at?

The Arctic Oven Nunatak Apex is in the same ballpark.

FYI sil-nylon sags when wet.

Sil-poly does not

The Argali line of tents are sil-poly.

I ended up with a peax tipi. Not what I was after. The new hybrid snowtrkkr is what I'll prolly go with now that it's released

That new hybrid from Snowtrekker looks awesome, I want one!!!

The Oware 11x11 pyramid is a great shelter if it's big enough for your needs.
