[quote=kaboku68]Black Diamond Eldorado 2 person single wall tent weighs 4lbs 11 oz with carbon fiber poles. Thank me later.
I've had the Black Diamond Firstlight, the sister version of the Eldorado. Good tent(s), but not real light for a 1P and I dislike not having a vestibule, and the front entry. It's unnecessarily heavy, small, and expensive for what you propose. It's a mountaineering tent made for single use, high altitude climbing.
Brad- I hunt sheep and goats. The Eldorado with its ToddTex walls is not like the first light. It can take a lot of weather and if vented right also is good for condensation. I have many lighter tents and I have used them including a BA Copper Spur 3 UL and a BA Flycreek UL2 and I keep going to the Eldorado. It is not the biggest tent but it is a 4 season tent that won't crap out in bad weather.
