Planning to Upgrade to a 2-Person Tent with Gear Vestibules for Rocky Mountain Hunts

If willing to use trekking poles check out tarp tent. DCF versions. I have a few one man 16 oz for tough high country pursuits where im going light n moving. The two persons i think would be equal quality. Never know maybe something of interest. Definitely pros and cons to using trekking poles. My experience has been very storm worthy if pinned down stakes with rocks per usual…

Thanks for sharing, I will give Durston a look, as it looks like they both the trekking pole and freestanding tents.
Heck even the Durston X-Mid 1 has two (2) vestibules!

This is in the morning after that spring snowstorm. Not the most impressive example since it looks a little saggy but for context this was pitched on top of 3’ of existing snow, at midnight, in the middle of a snowstorm. AND was my first time setting it up in the snow attempting to using small branches as deadman’s.

Lots of lessons learned but the biggest was that it didn’t collapse plus kept me warm and dry all night.

I know you didn't list it, but I'd look at Tarptent.

I have the Skyscraper 2p. Don’t have a ton of time with the tent, spent about 10 nights in it. When it’s all staked out it feels like it could take some pretty serious weather. So far only been in fairly mild weather 15mph or so of wind and light rain. Condensation was average when the fly was fully zipped, when I use the little chingaderas that prop the fly open I had zero condensation. It’s a palace for one person with plenty of space for gear in the vestibules or inside the tent. Any questions let me know.
