The rugged but ultra-light Arcadia 3 is a model of backcountry versatility with its front and rear doors with awning vents, ample shoulder room for three and optional vestibule.
The Arcadia 3 is probably best used with the vestibule attached for the unpredictable weather we get in the UK! When added the vestibule adds a huge volume to the usable space, it stretches out 4ft 9inches, size does matter.

DAC Green AnodizingTM—Whenever possible we have reduced the use of chemicals, dyes and water in the production of our DAC-branded tent poles through a combination of efforts. We employ their proprietary Green Anodizing process and also specify the use of natural silver aluminum clear coat. Additionally, we chose to color-code only the end sections of specific poles, since that is all that is necessary to facilitate easy set-up.
An extremely strong, lightweight waterproof nylon ripstop fabric used in GoLite Shelters and Tents. The nylon fibers are impregnated with Silicone, which allows the fabric to stretch without separating or breaking. SilLite™ fabrics are far lighter than conventional tent fabrics, but also far stronger.
