The North Face single-wall Phoenix 2 tent is a feathery, freestanding 2-person abode with nice space around the head and shoulders.

DryWall™ proprietary single-skin fabric has high breathability, high tensile strength, and an incredible Durable Water Repellent finish that won't wet out
DryWall is inherently fire resistant which eliminates the need to add fire retardant to its polyurethane coating; this saves weight and increases breathability and strength
Double doors and vestibules ease access, provide storage and enhance cross-ventilation options
High-low ventilation design harnesses convection and cross flow to help expel moisture vapor and prevent interior condensation
Pole twist clips make tent pitching and disassembly simple and fast, while saving weight
Light yet strong, DAC Featherlite® NSL poles are anodized without the use of harmful acids
Reverse-combi poles change the pole arcs to allow the tent walls to be steeper; tent's livable space is maximized for greater comfort and headroom
Handy interior loops allow you to hang your headlamp and other accessories; polyurethane windows (1in each vestibule) let light in and allow a view to the outside
Phoenix 2 includes stuff sacks, DAC stakes and guyline/tighteners

Please note: The North Face products can only be shipped to U.S. addresses.

Comments about The North Face Phoenix 2 Tent:

We purchased this tent from REI in March and used it on a 7 day backpacking trip in Utah during the first week of April. I was very impressed with the tent. Complete with poles, stakes, stuff sack and guy lines, it weighs just under 4 pounds on my digital scale. This is incredibly lightweight for what it does.

I was amazed at how easy it is to set up (no fly required!). We sat out an all night and morning rainstorm without a single drop of water entering the tent and no trace of condensation on the interior. the tent is very roomy. There were two night of high winds during our trip. The included guy lines were much appreciated. The tent was stable in the wind with minimal flapping. The vestibule doors made some rattling noise in the wind, but not enough to keep you awake. We (two) were able to sit up strait, with plenty of room around us to spread things out and dress and read without getting in each others way.

The zippers operate smoothly. There is no tension applied to the screen fabric when the tent is taut. Some nice touches include: Glow in the dark zipper toggles and reflective guy-lines so that you don't trip over them while walking around the tent in the dark. It is obvious that a lot of thought went into the design of this tent. I was a little leery about purchasing a single walled tent, but it performed wonderfully. I feel that it is also light enough for one person to take on a solo trip. I highly recommend this tent.

Comments about The North Face Phoenix 2 Tent:

I purchased this tent to be my company on several hiking trips in Alaska. From the beginning I loved this tent. It was so easy to set up, so lightweight I couldn't believe It was a double tent. I was backpacking in Denali for two weeks and I got just two nights of rain. Tent was fine, but there was a plenty of condensation. my sleeping bag was wet on the feet and head. I got also few drops of water directly from the ceiling.
But the disaster started when I flew to Katmai. I was backpacking in the wilderness and got two days of rain. first day was same as last time but then in the morning I packed the tent still little bit wet and next night was all the water coming into my tent. my sleeping pad was lying in water. Water was coming from everywhere. floor seams were leaking and drops of water were constantly falling from the ceiling. If I didn't find old geologist's shelter, I would cancel the trip which cost quite a lot of money.
Never more!

Comments about The North Face Phoenix 2 Tent:

Well, this was a good idea but has some fatal flaws. I'm new to the single wall world so that's where I first went wrong I guess. This breathes WAY less than a double wall tent. Everytime I used it (maybe 4-5 trips) I woke up in really stuffy air with condensation everywhere, even with the completely mesh doors which make you think it's gonna breathe great. This was sort of a mystery to me - it's hands down the worst breathing tent I've ever been in, including 4 season double wall tents that were pretty sealed up.

Next, the inner walls that have the doors are just ridiculous. The mesh goes ALL THE WAY to the ground, so if you're in a sandy area with a tiny bit if wind you are gong to get a tent full of it. This tent could easily gain a tiny bit of weight to seal up a little better.

On the plus side there's a decent enough amount of room inside, it's really light and pretty fast to set up too. It doesn't seem flimsy and looks to have quality components.

I had it in some minor rain and it didn't seem to leak, although it's hard to tell with the condenstaion that happens.

BOTTOM LINE: Avoid if you are in warm weather / desert type areas. This just doesn't cut it.

Comments about The North Face Phoenix 2 Tent:

I've used this tent from car camping driving across the country to backpacking in the summer and snowshoeing in the winter. I really don't have too many complaints about it besides that some moisture does build up if your head and feet are pressed against the ends of the tent and it rains. I was in a tornado warning thunderstorm one time and the only water that came in bounced off the flooded ground and up into the tent. This tent is nice and light so its a breeze to shake out any dirt that gets in it once set up. The only thing I would change about it would have it be a little bit longer but I'm 6'2 so I don't think I fit into the average height category.

Comments about The North Face Phoenix 2 Tent:

I love the ent. I have used it four times with my Scout troop. Twice backpacking, once canoeing, and one car camping. It is ligh, sturdy, easy to pack, and had plenty of room.

I was stuck in a downpour with driving rain storm on one of the trips. Me an and gear remained bone dry.
