[pct-l] UL Tents

[Christopher Barrow]

To all,

Does anyone have perspectives on the lightweight tent as a shelter for the
PCT.  I'm pretty resolved that I will enjoy the evenings/sleeping much more
during my hike if I can be totally enclosed (more protection from the wind,
the elements, rodents, critters, and the always annoying mosquitoes).

However, I'm not completely decided on which tent to use.

I'm a big fan of the REI tent series and already own a REI Quarter Dome T2.

I'm thinking for going for a REI Quarter Dome T1 - 2 lbs 13 oz and wonder
what experience folks have had positively or negatively with other
solo-backing tents

I've looked at the Big Agnes Fly Creek UL1 which looks nice as far as weight
(30 oz), but the reviews are kinda harsh (not alot of room for yourself in
the tent or your stuff under the rain fly)

Good opinions on the Big Agnes Copper Spur UL 1, but its a little on the
pricey side.

Looking for opinions and perspectives if people have them.

Thanks!
