I live in the Aleutian Islands of Alaska. The wind and rain here are some of the worst. I've used this tent on over night hiking and camping trip to the other side of the island and I spent the month of September hiking the Kungsleden in northern Sweden. I bought the tent for it's weight, reliability and packability. The tent held very well in all weather, from freezing cold, heavy winds and medium rain. Easy and quick to setup. The only issues I had were with available internal space. I'm 5'11" and was not able to sit up inside without my head touching the top of the tent as well my head and feet touched the walls of the tent when laid out prone. Other than that I stayed warm and dry - the footprint is a must!

This tent kept me going along the Kungsleden in the winter of 2007 (www.i907.net). Rock solid stability, a bit odd to setup solo though when your cold. I never had any problems with the tent. It was very easy to spot at night with all it's reflective lines. Plenty of space for one person and gear or two people. Snow anchors help tremendously if your camping in high wind. I recommend getting the footprint as well.
