High Peak Hyper Lite ~ Backpacking Hiking Camp Camping Compact Hyperlite Tent ~ 2 Person Size Review

I bought the tent to use on small trips in the Adirondacks.Considering the price it was a fairly good deal.It is easy to set up and dismantle in just a few minutes.The full rain-fly is nice as well.There are a few problems, however.The tent is rather small for two people with equipment typically carried while backpacking.If you have a large pack, you'll have to leave it outside- or hope it fits in the vestibule.My boyfriend is a little over 6 feet tall and he had to sleep at a slight diagonal due to the dimensions of the footprint.The vestibules themselves are usefull for leaving small items outside (while still having them protected), like dirty boots.My main concern with this tent are the fiberglass poles.I set the tent up once to see it before using it.I used the tent once after that and the firberglass was actually bending, not just flexing, but creased.The third time I set it up, one section of pole broke.No unecessary force or strain was used that would have caused it to break.

It's not very compact thought I suppose it could be, but is fairly lightweight.The tent itself is nice and the fly kept moisture out.I would suggest purchasing aluminum poles if possible, as they are sturdier and more lightweight.I give this tent a 3 because it would be great for solo trips, had the poles been a better quality.
