I have not had any problems with my single wall single trekking pole tent in terms of finding dirt/sand to stake into. It is lighter and roomier than a free standing tent. I used a SMD Lunar Solo LE and love it as I can put all of my stuff in it which is super important when it is raining (rare) or when it is super buggy (common after the first 700 miles).

My idea has been to focus on tents that are morefree-standing rather than tents that are more dependent on stakes andguy-lines. My thought behind this is, once I get into the higher elevations, Imay encounter more rock than dirt. Any suggestions?
