Here's a link to a thread I had last year on this. See Bushcraft's response as I believe you hunt the same terrain/weather.

On a side note, I have not pulled the trigger as my search continues.

Good luck in your decision.

The reveiws don't do much for me. But I figured I'd ask.

Brad was talking about the Outdoor Research Night Haven. I have removed it from my list.

So the original link to the OR Nighthaven has now been replaced with a Golite product?

What the heck is this thread about?

Looks like it will do the trick. I use a BD megamid lite, and it will definatly take a beating(snow and wind). Stood up to some pretty harsh winds last year during the high buck hunt, and you can save weight by pitching it with a set of trecking poles. I've got one of mine rigged with a tigoat stove, for a heated shelter under 4lbs.

I have a budy who tours in the winter in the backcountry with it and said it takes the snow surprisingly well.

It's a test to see if you're paying attention.

I think Shaq is so used to the ol' Bait and Switch with Mrs. Shaq, that he just forgot where he was for a minute. grin

At the Shaq residence.

Shaq: "Hey honey, I've been thinking. We should all take a vacation to Disney Land this summer.

Mrs. Shaq: "That's a wonderful idea. Go see a travel agent and make the reservations!"

Shaq returns home.

Shaq: "I've got some great news dear. I was able to book that sheep hunt in B.C. for this fall!"

The scene ends with Shaq sprinting for the door while ducking plates, pots, and knives. grin

I could not see why anyone would think that the ORNH would be that "clammy" with all the ventilation provisions mentioned in the write up. ANYTHING that is sealed enough to keep the bugs out will probably be too sealed to let enough moisture out for some people.

That's the most likely explanation... that Mrs. Shaq is a tough customer grin
