Well we really caught the camping bug this summer. We have always enjoyed it, but just never got around to doing it. Once we started this summer, we went 4 out of 5 weekends. We bought the North Face Mountain Manor 8 a few weeks back and have used that twice. I really like that tent.
My son has a cub scout campout coming up in October, and we don't have a decent small tent, and I'm not about to bring the monster tent for two people, so I started looking around for a smaller 3 or 4 person tent. I'd like to take the family up to the Boundary Waters so I was looking for something that would work well up there. REI had quite a few good tents on sale over the past couple of weeks, plus I had a $100 gift card. I ended up getting the Marmot Limelight 3. It was on sale for $199, so I got if for $100 after the gift card.
It came today and I set it up in the living room. This is a really sweet tent. The quality of materials is very good, it's a piece of cake to setup, and it's lightweight. Looks like it should be just about hurricane proof with the fly on. Can't wait to try it out.
