I think that I have a fixation on tents - this is the 5th one that I've purchased. I have two Ozark Trail (Walmart) Jr Boy Scout tents ($20 each) that are 5' X 6" X 3" and pack down to a 16" X 6" size and only weigh 2+ lbs. I can sleep in it on the diagonal, it is free standing and it was my go to tent for my hike down to the bottom of the Grand Canyon. I purchased two as I was not sure of the durability of the fiberglass poles. It has no rain fly although it was supposed to be waterproof but I wasn't expecting rain at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. So to summarize, light, good interior height, free standing and compact. But now I find this No Limits brand Blackwell Peak 2 man tent that is also free standing, has greater interior height (39"), has a very good rain fly with ventilation, Its 83" long and has aluminum poles but also weighs 5lbs. The weight and packed size are important to me as all my equipment goes into my two bicycle panniers. I've been doing 25 mile trips every week and my short term goal is to do a century (100 miles in a day) to celebrate surviving one year since my accident. My longer term goal is to ride Orlando - Key West and back this fall after the rainy season. I'm making progress and life is good. Wendell
