What’s your favourite tent and why?
My first tent was the Black Wolf Stealth which, at 3kg, I worked out pretty quick was far too heavy if I was going to do any serious overnight stuff.
Since then have bought a Novapro Sports Illumina X which I absolutely love. While not being ultralight it is light enough (a shade over 1.5kg) not to weigh down your pack, a breeze to set up and plenty of room for me and my gear. It can also be set up fly first which comes in handy in the rain.
Mine is the Big Sky Revolution 3 person, 3 season tent. It’s lightweight, roomy, easy to set up and has an independent outer skin which is great for setting up a quick shelter out of the rain or setting up the tent in the rain. I also have a Chinook which is a 4 season tent. It’s less roomy though being a 2 person tent. You can read my review of this one here https://www.trailhiking.com.au/gear-reviews/big-sky-chinook-2p-4-season-tent/
