HA!

As crazy as this sound I have a tent that I have never even cracked the zipper on. The only thing not like new on this thing is the amount of dust on the carrying bag that is comes with...

130 shipped with paypal takes the cake...

From what I understand this is a very nice tent - it was given to me and I was going to use it for working outside for a controlled environment but the longer it sits there the more I realize I am just to lazy to set up and tear something like this down to use it for such a use...

    I have this exact same tent--4 seasons so far, flawless---no leaks or issues. I love it. I like that the rain fly does not need to be used if not necessary as all the windows have roll-up/zippered flaps. I also use a Eureka screen house for cooking/and a bail-out area in case of rain.

    These have more uses than for camping. I have a 16x32 building out back that I set up an 18 footer in to use for storage. Not a spec of dust on anythiing in there.

    Cool, great to see another one in use Steve. Is the bail out just a overhead only tent?

    Good deal. Spent the weekend backpacking up Mt Mitchell near Asheville, and I actually saw a group of 3 guys pack this bad boy up to ~5000 ft. They were there Friday night with torrential downpour (we packed in on Sat), and they said they stayed completely dry.

    BTW- big props for Mt. Mitchell- was 95 at ground level, but a cool 70 up on top.

    It's a screen house by Eureka. Bev & I made tarps that snap on in case of rain. Nothing worse than being stuck in your sleep tent during heavy rain. I think it's 9'x 14'.
