when coues fly Report post Posted January 5, 2012 Selling a few quality tents. First one: Mountain Hardwear Solitude one person tent. This tent is in EXCELLENT condition with no snags, rips, tears, or repairs. Only used three times. Mountain Hardwear produnts feature a LIFETIME guarantee. Zipper breaks they fix it, stitching comes undone they repair it, pole breaks or bends they replace it. Comes with tent body, rainfly, quality aluminum poles, quality aluminum stakes, factory footprint, and stuffsacks for the tent, poles, and stakes. Footprints are used between the floor of the tent and the ground as an extra layer of protection against sharp rocks, twigs, pokey things, and normal wear and tear. These originally sold for $199 for the tent without the footprint. Asking $140.00 shipped. Trades welcome on all tents! Rifles, pistols, scopes, binos, projectiles and reloading components, Barnes bullets, packs, .22's, etc. Please respond thru PM. Thank you. Here's some info I found online: Description Solitude has a hooped design that maximizes living space with a minimum amount of weight--perfect for solo treks or bike tours. Clear, non-yellowing, non-clouding rainfly window lets you view outside conditions without letting the elements in. Waterproof, taut polyester ripstop rainfly provides perfect 3-season protection; integral vestibule gives you covered gear storage. Two mesh intake vents and 2 canopy vents allow flow-through ventilation. D-shaped mesh door provides ventilation and stays off the ground when open. Two interior pockets let you store small essentials off of the tent floor. Abrasion-resistant nylon taffeta bathtub floor with extra coating ensures waterproofness; off-ground seams form a tub to keep ground water out. Durable ripstop nylon canopy is treated with mildew- and UV-inhibitors to increase the tent's life. Retail: $199 Reviewed by: Greg DiBernardo, a Backpacker from Wyckoff, NJ Date Reviewed: 5/8/2002 6:22:26 AM Overall Rating: ValueRating: Summary: The Solitude is very easy to pitch as long as you are able to stake it out. I've never set it up on rocks but would imagine it is possible, albeit a bit more difficult. Size-wise, I think it's perfect. I'm 5-10 and have plenty of room inside. This tent is obviously not marketed as a bivy shelter and it should not be. IMHO, I'd much rather carry this 3lb. tent and know I'll be confortable rather than a bivy sack. The vestibule is small, but adequate for boots and maybe a small stove setup. The nice thing about it is that you can adjust the fly openings while you are laying down by just unzipping the mesh and sticking your arm out. Very nice feature to have. At $190, the tent is pricey, but well worth it down to the last stitch. MH makes hardcore gear that is built to last and will not fail you. This ain't no Eureka (trust me, I have two Eurekas)! If you know you will really use this tent, I would definitely reccommend it. For occassional use, you might be able to save a few bucks with another brand. Customer Service: None. I've heard MH is really good. Similar Products Tried: Slumberjack Bivy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

when coues fly Report post Posted January 7, 2012 Waypoint 2: Comes with the tent, quality aluminum stakes, quality aluminum poles, and stuffsacks for the tent, poles, and stakes. Also comes with the optional factory Footprint to help protect the floor. One of the pole ends on this one seems to have moved at one point. I tried to pull on it to get it to come out and tried to pop it back in using a plastic mallet as to not bugger it up and it ain't moving. I didn't want to beat on it till I splintered the end of the pole and really F it up so it is where it is. See pics. Does not affect set-up in any way.
