Hello,
Rookie question. I'm looking to purchase a new lightweight tent. I am debating between the Seek Outside Eolus, and Tarptent StratoSpire 2 or MoTrail. Any advice on shelter would be appreciated so feel free to school me on this. My actual question is however how important is it to have a single wall vs double wall shelter. All tents have tub floors and bug nets which I appreciate for ticks, bugs etc during the spring/summer. The MoTrail however is only a single wall so I get that there will be more condensation that could possibly become annoying. I did however score a Mountain Hardware Gortex Phantom sleeping bag so I'm wondering if condensation is really a concern as the bag should be able to handle a bit of water. Is this a misguided thought? I just like the idea of the MoTrail as it is lightweight and smaller footprint. I already have a 6.5lb Marmot limelight 3p tent that I can use if the weather is expected to be really bad so I'm trying to fill the gap and get a lighter/smaller 2p setup that can still fit 2 guys when we are trying to save weight.
Thanks for any help,
RSC
