- Evolution Tension Arch™ stabilizes tent using fewer poles
- Stiff but lightweight fabric spreads the load-bearing capability of the poles over a wide surface area; ribbed wall fabric adds strength while remaining lightweight

- Catenary-cut seams create a taut canopy and rainfly for improved strength
- All the poles are color coded to the bar tacks in the webbing of the grommet tabs, plus reflective starter points help setup in low light conditions
- Internal guy system provides additional rigidity to the structure by creating resistance to the flexing or deformation of the frame
- All guyout points are reflective for easy identification and canopy pockets keep tent organized
- Superlight buckles and webbing save weight; canopy storage pockets help keep your tent organized
- Fly, footprint (sold separately) and poles pitch without canopy to create a lightweight shelter
- Mountain Hardwear Trango 2 comes with stuff sacks, aluminum stakes and owner's manual

Great 4 season tent!!!!
Yes , I recommend this product
This tent is perfect for two people. its floor dimensions are larger than some 3 person tents. the tent stand up to its mountain hardwear reputation. The two doors make it possible to ventilate the tent in hot and humid conditions (better than most 4 season tents) The vestibules are huge! Enough for two packs and a "camp kitchen" in the front and boots and other misc. gear in the back. the only complaint I have is that its heavy, at about 10 lbs this isnt a tent you would want to backpack solo with. However, splitting the poles, guylines, and stakes to one person and the tent body and fly to the other makes it very managable. Overall if your looking for a TWO person bombproof roomy tent for anything from hiking to mountaineering this would be a perfect choice.
