Big Agnes Emerald Mountain SL 3 - Three Person Tent Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Great ventilation... I was able to stay inside the tent with an open rainfly (shaded) at 90 degrees. That gossamer mesh tent body means no condensation to contend with, and great views on clear nights.I was also very impressed with the weight... light enough to tempt an ultralight backpacker.We stayed dry throughout a 9 hour downpour, too!The down side (and its a big one, in my opinion) is that the tent body itself is very delicate (natch, being all mesh).Staking the tent down with the edges taut resulted in "runs" in the mesh netting in various areas.I didn't really stretch the tent incredibly taut, just snug, but it resulted in several little 1/2" runs scattered throught the tent canopy and upper sides.Stake the tent loosely (or not at all) and stake the fly taught and you should be fine, I think.However, if you're camping in windy conditions this could be a problem.
