Lisa,

I got the Lightheart Solo Cuben Fiber this fall.  I've only used it 
twice and have no first-hand information about its performance in 
extreme conditions.

It is very easy to set up; I've never had another tent that is faster to 
put up.  It's also extremely light, if you don't count the weight of the 
pair of trekking poles.  It's almost as roomy as my old Sierra Designs 
two-man tent, and the view of the stars through the bug net is 
terrific.  It looks like it will perform well in the elements, but time 
will tell.

I got a set of titanium L-stakes from Six Moon Designs to go with the 
tent.  They are light, strong, and grip much better than my old round 
aluminum stakes.

David
