ALPS Mountaineering Vertex 2 AL Tent

I went camping for 8 days. It rained for 6. Complete with a little hail and a tornado warning. Not a drop got through. I went to a festival and was the only person in my section that stayed dry. This tent is amazing! The rain fly is superb and ties down brilliantly in strong winds. It's simple enough for a legally blind girl like me to pitch on her own and stronger than any of the manly tents that collapsed or drank in moisture. I never even sprayed it! It is small, but it's perfect for one person, with room to separate clean and dirty laundry, pockets to put your glasses at night, and an overhead sling to put your most needed items for easy access. The floor may have leaked if i had stayed longer or if i had not noticed the puddle forming underneath the tent around day 5, but that would have been my fault and not the tent's. I definitely recommend this. The rain fly doesn't touch the tent and it even forms a little space perfect for keeping shoes out of the rain and out of the tent so your living space stays clean and your feet stay dry.
