Function and durability are great features, and sometimes get lost in the array of easily sold numbers like weight and square footage. The LightWedge 2 by Mountain Hardwear isn't the lightest tent with lowest weight to square footage ratio. It is light enough for back packing, roomy enough for comfortable camping, has long term durability, and is simple enough that you won't need a degree in engineering to set it up. Isn't that what you really want out of a tent?
Not every situation requires the lightest, strongest, and smallest tent. Sometimes you just need a reliable, durable, and simple piece of equipment, which is where the LightWedge 2 by Mountain Hardwear fits in. Designed for two people, the classic wedge design is roomy and sturdy, with a single door at the wide end for convenience. Three vents in the canopy keep condensation to a minimum, and the window in the fly door allows you to view the outside conditions. Easy set-up details include color coded pole loops, and reflective guy-out loops and starter points for simple night time set-up. Mountain Hardwear builds tents to scale Everest and survive the Antarctic. So when they turn their sights to building a roomy two person backpacking tent, you can be assured that years of on-the-edge R&D will create a functional, durable tent that works trip after trip.
