Marmot Halo 6 Tent Best Ever
16 years ago
I have owned 5 other Tents. This is the best ever. I have been camping for 30 years...Best Ever..Easiest to put up...Our children notice that we do not fight or yell when putting it up. We spent two weeks in Yellowstone...Lots of rain and wind...no problems...we were dry as a bone..tons of room to stand up in..Glad we bought the Halo 6 Marmot footprint..It clips into the body,,Whereas our other Nothface 6 person did not..I am very pleased with this 6 person two vestibule waterproof , bombproof tent..It is way better than our Coleman,Sierra Design, Northface, Kelty, Columbia tents we owned..Love It..Would strongly urge others to buy it..

4P is Awesome!

Around the 4th of July in 2006 my wife and I tried to find a good tent for car camping with luxurious space. We thought we had found a good one. It was very spacious with multiple rooms. Unfortunately as soon as it started raining the door zippers and windows started leaking and we had a long night. That tent went back. I had a simple criteria for tent selection from that day forward. The rainfly must cover the tent completely. The Halo4p is what we chose. It was considerably more expensive than other tents but it was immediately apparent that we got what we paid for. This tent is absolutely bombproof! When fully assembled and staked out I think I could hang my full weight from the gear loop. The "halo" poles pull the walls out and provide quite a bit more interior space. We did not opt for the footprint. We use a heavy duty cheap tarp doubled over underneath the tent. I feel this provides better protection from sharp objects. We car camp with a queen size coleman air matress and have lots of room left over. The next 4th of July we went camping again. Rain was in the forecast but we selected an elevated spot in our state forest campsite and hoped for the best. My brother called and said we were under a tornado warning. So we went to bed and waited for the rain. Not a drop came into the tent. I was amazed the next morning to find that the place we pitched our tent looked like an old river bed. The water had gone around and under our tent all night. The only slight criticism I have of the tent is privacy. When the rainfly is off there is no way to close the roof of the tent which is all mesh. In a public campground depending on vantage point this could be inconvenient. For backpacking I think this tent could be used in groups for weekend trips. If your group had 3 people you could have one person carry the tent and his own water and split his gear among the other two in large stuff sacks. Trying to cram 4 people into this tent would be cozy but with the 2 large vestibules your packs would be protected. Other things I like about the tent are the mesh roof for stargazing, the little struts for the rainfly vent windows, the double doors and the awesome mesh pockets intside the tent. You could practically unload your backpack into the mesh pockets! I have yet to jam a zipper.

Absolutely THE best tent on the market!

I purchased the Marmot Halo 6 (but it seems REI doesn't carry it anymore) which is just the bigger version of this 4 person tent. I bought it to replace my Eureka Timblerlines I have been using when family camping. I have four boys, ages 15-9, and bought this for our three week vacation through the Badlands, Yellowstone, Grand Tetons, Arches NP, and Canyonlands NP. We practiced putting it up and taking it down prior to the trip and it was very easy. This tent proved to be the best tent around. We stayed dry during a torrential downpour, warm at night (when the fly doors are zipped up), and cool at night in the desert with the top off. It withstands high winds when staked out (didn't even have to use the guy lines on the fly) with ease. It was very durable - kids going in and out the zipper runs smooth and without issue. Definitely buy the Marmot foot print - perfect! The 6P is 10x10' but was easily accomodated at each NP we went to. It would definitely be too heavy to backpack with. But camping out of the back of our Suburban, the weight and size of the tent was not an issue. I looked around and read almost every review on the internet about the Marmot 4P and 6P before I settled on buying it. It is truly the best tent out there but you have to be willing to pay[$] for the footprint. What is a warm, dry night worth after hiking all day to you when on vacation?
