[pct-l] ZPacks Hexamid Twin Tent

[River Malcolm]

Hi Mark,

No experience yet with it on the trail, but I have bought the solo hexamid
and been practicing setting it up. Given what a total beginner I am, and how well
my practice has been going, I would say it is very easy to set up.

How will it hold up in the wind, rain, snow? I don't know, but I've got my fingers
crossed. Seems like a great tent, so far.
