Product Description

1 Person / 3-Season Comparable in weight and price to a bivy sack, but so much more comfortable. The Light Year has long been a staple of three-season cyclists and thru-hikers, both for its two-pound 11-ounce weight and its superior comfort - 113 inches long and 38 inches tall! DAC Featherlite poles help us achieve its miraculous weight, while a SuperSeal floor treated with Tent Guard with Ultra Fresh makes it long-lasting and weatherproof. Reflective guy-outs and zipper pulls trick out the feature set, making this an ultralight but fully featured shelter. Tried-and-true, the Light Year backpacks, climbs, bike tours - you name it, the Light Year has been there, done that. Unbelievably light, but spacious and weatherproof, the Light Year is the solo backpacker's gold standard. Features: ? CAD Design ? Color Coded Webbing ? DAC Featherlite Poles ? Double Grommets ?

This review is from: Sierra Designs Lightyear 1 Tent (Misc.)

I've had this tent for a couple of years and have used it a few times and I'm continually impressed by it's quality so I had to share.
I'm 6'6" and this tent is just big enough for me, with room in the point of the headspace for stuff, boots go outside but still under the rainfly, pocket stuff goes in the mesh pockets in the side, and eyeglasses hang from one of the two roof loops where a lightweight LED lamp could also go.
I just can't believe how nice and tough this lightweight tent is...a real treat to use in this time of cheap junk being pushed on us.
Thank you Sierra Designs for a quality product that is a snap to setup.
