The North Face Solo 12 Tent

The North Face Solo 12 Tent:
Backcountry adventures certainly have their highs and lows, but few one-person tent designs have the high-low venting performance of this Solo 12 tent from The North Face. With 35 inches of headroom, the Solo is ideal for fastpacking outdoor enthusiasts who often find themselves feeling cramped by confining bivy bags and other ultralight tents. Overhead vents and perimeter vents combine to optimize the high-low air flow, although you can cut any excess breeze with the integrated zippers. This is accomplished with The North Face's new Nano-Knuckle Swivel, a durable plastic swivel that's positioned on the top cross pole to improve venting at the top without leaving you exposed to the elements. The durable nylon canopy is fully seam sealed for optimal weather protection, and The North Face tested the Solo 12 in wind tunnel gusts clocked up to 95 mph (don't try that with those other 2-lb. minimalist tents). If you like to go it alone but you also like a refined design with creature comforts, The North Face Solo 12 has you covered through three seasons of the year.
