A lightweight tent built around 15D nylon and aluminium alloy poles, the combination that keeps pack weight down without giving up strength. The floor is rated at 4000 mm, twice the 2000 mm of the outer, which is the right way round: ground water under pressure from your knees and elbows is what actually soaks a sleeping bag. Choose the single at 210 by 200 cm or the double at 210 by 243 cm, and pegs and guylines are included with both.
15D nylon is genuinely lightweight fabric, the sort used on tents meant to be carried rather than driven to. Paired with aluminium poles it keeps the pack weight sensible.
4000 mm on the base is double the outer rating, which is exactly what you want. Pressure from knees and elbows forces ground water through weaker floors long before rain gets through the fly.
Aluminium poles are lighter, more reliable in cold weather, and far less prone to splintering than the fibreglass fitted to budget tents.
The single gives 210 by 200 cm with 95 cm of height, and the double stretches to 210 by 243 cm at 90 cm. Both leave room for packs alongside you.
Nine pegs and three guylines with the single, eleven pegs and three guylines with the double. Nothing to buy before your first night out.
