ALPS Mountaineering Mystique 1.0 Tent: 1-Person 3-Season

Near perfect 1 person backpacking tent

By Ryan Hamilton August 29, 2011

Just came back from an overnighter with this tent and it performed perfectly. I even got a little rain overnight and can report no issues (I even forgot to seal the seams before hand and no drips came through). Great ventilation. Good design. The only think I don't like is that it needs to be staked to stay up, but I suppose that's what helps to keep it lightweight, so I can't fault it too much. It packs down pretty small and could go smaller if you put it in a compression sack. Well worth the $90 that it's currently listed at.
