[pct-l] which tarptent?

[darudiva at xs4all.nl (S Daru)]

Hi Alec,

I hiked the JMT with my bf and we were extremely happy with the 
Cloudburst. For us, it had enough space. It also kept us safe in the 
snow. See http://www.xs4all.nl/~darudiva for some pictures. We loved 
the hooped front as it provided much more headroom. The extended beak 
helps a lot to keep the rain out.

Have fun!
