This is a quick follow-up to my article " Designing the Perfect Tent". I've recently come across three interesting looking tents that might be good for touring, in addition to the Exped Auriga Mesh, which I mentioned in the last article.
Marmot
Nusku 2P |
This is a very interesting tent that I just came across. It's similar to the Exped Auriga Mesh in many ways, but unfortunately has a third pole. It's also a little on the heavy side. An advantage over the Auriga Mesh might be the longer rainfly. |

Hilleburg
Allak |
Hilleburg is generally considered to be one of the best brands in the business. This tent has many of the features I like, is available in green, but has a third pole and is quite expensive. |

Vaude
Space Explorer |
This tent used to be available in Green, but now appears to only be available in yellow. It's designed for winter use, has a fly-first pitch and snow/dust flaps. A disadvantage would be the single vestibule. |
