Skyscape Scout 1 Person Backpacking Tent - 40 oz Lightweight Hiking Tent - Solo Camping Shelter & Waterproof Outdoor Gear - Hybrid Double Wall Small Tent for Tall Hikers - 1P Shelter

I'm an experienced camper, but had never used a trekking pole tent before. I think the internal structure design was a good way for me to learn without getting too frustrated with a bunch of guy lines. It took me almost an hour to set it up the first time, but I realized I had the poles ... First in the wrong place, then in the wrong orientation. Once I figured that out, it was pretty easy. Took about 30 mins the second time I set it up. The instructions weren't very clear, even after watching the videos.The poles will be placed INSIDE of the bug net of the tent. Take the caps off your poles. Unzip the bug net of the tent. Flip the top corners of the tent inside out to expose the canvas pocket next to the spacer bar (inside the bug net). Insert the tip of your pole into the pocket as close to the spacer bar as possible. Then flip it right side out and guide the handle of the trekking pole inside of the bug net and rest it in the bottom corner pocket.Thankfully, I was quick to add the sealant to the seams. It started raining at dusk and got really strong around midnight to 3am. My dog and I had a comfortable and dry first night. Winds were steady around 5-10 mph on that mountain, but probably got up to about 20 mph during the storm. When we woke up in the morning, I noticed that my feet were a bit wet... But that's when I realized there's a seam in the foot box that I didn't notice. I never sealed it. After letting everything dry, I sealed it up and didn't have wet feet again on my 4 night trip. It also didn't rain again, but no condensation is a good thing.The tent was a lot more spacious than I had expected from a 1 person tent. I'm only 5'6", but I had more than enough head and foot room even with my pack and my dog and his bed all inside with me.Even with the learning curve, Im happy with my new tent and I'm looking forward to taking it out again with a little more practice.

Had it for a year now and it has held up fine, zippers are good and no leaks. Only giving four stars because I don't feel confident it will keep me dry if I was in some bad weather. This due to the low tub floor. It may just be me because I have not had it in heavy downpours but it is something I consider if I am taking this. But again no issues, its decently light and I can fit my dog in there too if needed. Holds up well to wind but I do try to chose my sites well.

Bought one of these for an upcoming trip and recently tried it out in my backyard on a somewhat windy evening.Pros:Very compact and light, less weight and space taken up than my particularly compact sleeping bag.Very quick setup once you know what you're doing, as in about 5 minutes.Uses trekking poles for the poles, so one less thing you need to carry with you. Just need the tent, trekking poles, and stakes.In a completely gnat and mosquito-infested area, zero insects got in through the inner mesh.Cons:Instructions weren't terribly clear (and were also made for multiple different products, so pay attention to that) and I got stuck for a while figuring out where the trekking poles are inserted to prop up the tent. There's a reinforced section in the corner of the tent (on the inside) where the handle side of the pole goes in which is more obvious, and also a little black reinforced flap where you put the pointy end of the pole that's much harder to find.As with all tents, took a few attempts to get the tent rolled up in a way that it would fit back in the bag. But when I did, it was just as compact (if not a little moreso) than when I received it.Other notes:I'm 6 feet tall, I was able to sit up and have a few inches clearance at the apex of the tent. With a larger backpack it was relatively compact lengthwise but definitely doable even without having your feet on your pack. If you're above 6'4", you might need to have your feet on your pack though or otherwise get creative.Overall, very satisfied and bought a second one as I'm usually out hiking/camping with two people.

I like this tent so far but it has the most condensation I've ever dealt with. Not totally unsurprising with this kind of tent but it was more than I expected. I have to be very careful if I don't want big droplets all over me and my down quilt in the mornings and I'm not a tall person. Nice shape and color, pretty lightweight for walking into the backcountry and blends in with greenery when I don't want to stick out near higher traffic trails.

Super stoked to take this tent out. Set it up in my back yard to seam seal it. Make sure you have a sunny day to do this as it will help with the curing process. This tent is light and durable. Recently started using trekking poles and decommissioned my REI Passage 2 for the Skyscape Scout by Six Moons. Going from a 5lb tent to a 2.2lb tent feels great! I love this tent because most 1 person backpacking tents often times will literally only have enough room for one person and a few pieces of gear, but the Skyscape has plenty of room for you and your gear. The Double door, double vestibule allows for plenty of ventilation too.
