The holidays are around the corner and I am paring down my wish list for
Santa. Has anyone used the Betamid tent made by Bibler? It weighs in at
2lbs, 5 oz. but covers 55 sq ft and sleeps 2. It has no floor unless you buy
that attachable option, an additional 1 lb, 4 oz. You use 2 trekking poles
for this teepee style tent. I wouldn't use it for hikes in the rainy
northwest or the mosquito prone gulf, but it looks nice for the semi dry
sections of the central mountain states to California.
