Hey everyone,
I just started doing some tent shopping. After doing some initial research and reading the post about which tent size satisfies your needs (http://www.campingforums.com/forum/s...ies-your-Needs), I think I've finally narrowed down my options a bit.
Here's what I'm looking for:
* Weight - Something reasonably light - I'll be doing car camping and backpacking
* Seasons - A 3 season tent is fine - I don't think I'll be camping in the tundra anytime soon, but I want to make sure it's highly waterproof - I'll have camera equipment in the tent
* Capacity - I'll be doing some camping on my own and sometimes with a friend - so I guess that would mean I'm looking for a 3 person (based on the aforementioned post)
* Doors - 2 is preferred
* Price - Sub $300 is preferred, but would be willing to spend more for a good reason
* Other - Freestanding is preferred and good sized vestibule(s)
I've looked at the Marmot Limelight 3 and I think it meets my needs. Anyone have any experience with this? Any other tents that would fit my criteria?
Thanks in advance,
Brandon
