Marmot Fortress
It weighs 5# 9oz., and has good reviews but I haven't personall y used it. Only two poles???? Is it really a 4-season tent???


I use Marmot products, had very good luck with them.
I have the Marmot Limestone tent, it's a 6 person pig weighing in at 17+ pounds.
It has its place and time, built tuff, lots of heavy fabric reinforcement, no failures.
I've had it in 50 and 60mph gusts, it blows flat a bit but stays intact and pops back as the gusts subside.
Probably wouldn't do that of I had all the tie downs in place that its D ringed up for


Pretty good midrange tent at about 400 bucks.

That tent you posted the link to that you use is badazzed. I bet it doesn't mind the wind.
