[QUOTE="Elkwonder, post: 1165551, member: 28569"] I know it has been talked about a dozen or more times, but lets do it again!!! LOL I am upgrading my last two pieces of gear for next hunting season......My tent and Sleeping bag! I just ordered a Western mountaineering puma gws -25 sleeping bag. Now I need to pick a tent. I want to get a great tent for doing all of my backpack spike camp hunting. I would obviously like to get a great deal on one, but price is not as important to me as comfort, weight and durability. I have a couple tents that are looking pretty good to me. However, Im open to any other tents as well, so PLEASE don't hold back with your experiences...... Some of the ones I am looking at are Sierra Designs lightning ul2 Big Agnes.....several tents of theirs Cabelas XPG ul2 Helliberg nallo2 Big Agnes shield 2 I would like to be able to use my tent in the later seasons when snow is on the ground as well as early september archery hunts. I hate to have to carry anything too heavy, also I am a little concerned about condensation getting my new bag damp or wet. I know that a wet (down sleeping bag) is worthless. I have never had a single wall tent design and so I am not sure how good of a choice that is with condensation issues, but I know they are a little better durability and warmth. So, what say you? Thanks for any and all opinions and experiences..... [/QUOTE]
