Our Verdict

As materials become ever lighter we are seeing much bigger lightweight backpacking tents offering more comfort, in many cases for less weight. The Fly Creek is a good example of this concept, we particularly like the high fabric inner - only the top section and door is mesh.

 

The weight of this 3 person tent is just astonishing - I wouldn't be embarassed carrying a tent of this weight if I was going solo!
