[pct-l] Walrus Micro Swift or Moss Outland

[Ty <ty@vr6.com>]

Okay it is me again trying to figure out which which tent might be best.  I have narrowed it down to these two tents.  Here are a few of the key points of each tent:

Feature			WMS		MO
Price			$119		$349
Weight			3 Lbs. 4 oz.	5 lbs. 12 oz.
Sleeping		1		1
Seasons			3		4
Free standing		No		Yes

I do plan on doing some winter hiking so that would be the reason I am leaning towards the MO.  Not sure if it matter but I am 6'0" and about 180 lbs.  I did check out a few reviews on both of these at the following URL and didn't find anything bad about either:

Here are some spec sheets on both tents:

If you know of a better tent in the same category, please feel free to speak up and I will definitely look into it.

Many thanks to everyone,
