I love this tent. I bought it out of a sense of nostalgia as I had lived in one for 5 weeks on the Kahiltna and Denali. 23 years later, it is still one of the roomiest, bombproof and reliable tents for hideous conditions. I have owned and used a fair few 4 season and expedition tents, and for lounging around and buttoning up in a storm, this is the fave. While it is a weighty beast, if used for a basecamp tent, it will be lush. We humped this up to 17,000' on the West Rib and glad we did. I can't wait to take my children out on their first BC trip, and this is definitely coming.
