I’m sure you’ve been “VERY GOOD!” 😂

Wow that tent looks just like my Snugpak Scorpion 2 and they also say that the tent is a two man tent which it is not unless you are sharing it with your wife or girl friend, and it sets up fly first as well, the color of the Snugpak is darker which i feel blends very well with the surrounding area, and i use it alot when stealth camping .

The Snugpak Scorpion 2 is a great tent! With regards to room inside, it is cosy, to be honest my wife wouldn’t want to be that close to me lol 😂 My dog however just puts up with me though! 😂 I do love the Pine colour, mind you most greens blend well as stealthy colours! 👍

Heavy though .i am doing south coast way for MIND, i need a lightweight 2man..any ideas?

[@rufusduck71]

Look at the vango radon ul2 Comes in at 1.8kg for a realistic 2 person tent . Or the radon 1 if its just you .

@rufusduck71 too pricey I'm afraid...good looking tent though 🫡..thanks chap.

If you see a tent you like, but a bit heavy, you can always ditch the tent bag, as they tend to be fairly heavy on their own! Also change out the ground pegs, for lighter ones! The total weight saving for those two things on their own can be surprisingly substantial! However also some times knowing the tent your carrying ticks all your boxes and gives you piece of mind, in my opinion is sometimes worth carrying the extra weight! 👍

Agree with that . Carrying less water /drinks and batteries for tec is a great way of saving weight from your pack. I consume way less water in spring than I do in summer . As for the radon 2 .I've got one and feel it could be the perfect 1 tent does all backpacking solution . It's £230 light enough for 1 man to carry big enough for 2 to sleep in well built / strong and stealthy . I've been looking for the perfect twnt for years .this may be it .

@ points well made! I think we all look for the perfect tent for our own wants and needs, but unfortunately I don’t think it exists! So comprise and common sense has to take over! 👍

Similar to soul 200
