Description of Exped: Sirius Extreme Tent

Built to weather the worst, Exped's Sirius Extreme tent has the same durable, critically-acclaimed features found in the award-winning Sirius tent with less weight and a waterproof two-sided, silicone-coated ripstop nylon rainfly. Backpacker Magazine gave the Exped Sirius tent top marks for low weight and space that feels like a three-person tent, but Europe's Outdoor Magazin (that's not a typo in the name) recognized the weather protection in the tunnel tent architecture. No matter which characteristics appeal more to you, you'll appreciate the fast and easy setup that one person can pitch (four stakes!) in roughly two minutes. Windows open from the inside for convenience and feature bug netting to keep any biters at bay. Like other top Exped tents, the Sirius Extreme tent features color-coded and reflective elements, making it easy for beginners to pitch right on their first try.

Solid and compact... I'm planning a trip that will include cold, wet weather, and I'm counting of this tent to keep me warm and dry. Functional and esthetically pleasing..that's what I like, and I also like quality that will last. I'm sure I've made a great choice.

Best do it all tent I have used this tent year round and have found it to be the best do it all tent . It easly withstood wind rain and snow on Pikes Peak. This tent is a breeze to set up as well only taking 1 minute after practise. The none freestanding design is a little differnt but you get used to it.
