FS: Ultralight 3 person Tent

[Michael Hechmer]

maybe not a lot of Riv content here, but if you're into S240 with your main squeeze you might be interested.

First subtract one from all tent mfg. size claims, this is a roomy, comfortable, rain & wind proof, 2 person tent.

Tarptent Rainshadow II: http://www.tarptent.com/rainshadow2.html

Super light: 42 oz.  Super fast to put up, under 3 minutes, really.  New = $280 + poles + shipping.  Offered for $140 w poles, shipped CONUS.

Like new conditions, used about a dozen nights.

Despite mfg. claims this tent works best with Trekking Poles, the supplied poles are too light for optimal results.

My wife and I mostly do canoe camping.  I can't hike so well any more and we prefer inn to inn bike touring, so weight & size are not such a big issue for us.  Aging, she needs easier in & out  and I'd like more shoulder room.  We're moving toward an 8 lb dome.
