My son has the Mystique 2.0. It is plenty long but the headroom is low. I
think the Zephyr has more headroom and was looking at that one for myself.
The Mystique is a well constructed tent and my son learned it can be set up
with trekking poles when you leave your poles at home. A great learning
experience for all.
