[pct-l] ZPacks Hexamid Twin Tent

[Jim & Jane Moody]

You might check the archives from a few weeks ago.  Shroomer and others comm ented on its popularity on the CDT last year.  A Youtube  link or two for setting it up was also provided, but I don't have those at hand. 



On a related note, I'm still having trouble communicating with Falling Water at Six Moons Design, but their website says they are selling the cuben Lunar Solo at dealers now, including Sundog in Dama sc us and Bluff Mtn Outfitters in Hot Springs.  As far as I can tell, they are not selling it online, nor are they booked into Trail Days as a vendor.  with the guy from ULA joining SMD, maybe they're concentrating on product develop ment and testing.  Will they be at Kickoff?

Hi PCT-L, 
Just wondering if anyone has any experience or knows of anyone who has 
experience with this tent on a thru hike: 
http://zpacks.com/shelter/hexamidtwin.shtml. the weight is extremely 
appealing but I want to know the trade-offs that this type of system 
must come with. I understand that with this type of non-freestanding 
tent it will be more difficult to set up and stake out.  But we keep 
coming up with how light weight it is.  Positive or Negative feedback 
welcomed. Please let me know if you know of any experience during a 
long distance hike with this tent or any other options that anyone 
suggests for two people. 

Thanks, 
Mark
