Kelty Corrie Tent 1 Person 3 Season
good solo tent
By Krawl One July 19, 2010
I was pleased with the Corrie 1 on a recent backpacking trip in the Elkhorns in eastern Oregon. An outstanding forecast allowed me to leave the rainfly behind making packed weight of the tent about 3 lbs. The tent rolled smaller than my REI lite-core sleeping pad. I am about 6’ 2” and fit comfortably inside. Setup was easy and there is plenty of ventilation to let the breeze through. At this point, the only drawback was the front entry, which required me to either go in feet first or crawl in and turn around. Honestly, almost any tent would have performed well in the conditions I camped in and the real test will be in less favorable weather. I scored this for $99 on Steep and Cheap, and I have a feeling it was a good purchase.
