[at-l] Tents for the PCT

[Andrew Claus]

Chase:

I really like my Henry Shires Tarptent Contrail 1, 24 oz with floor.  It was excellent in its simplicity on the CDT last year, there's practically nothing to break and only 4 stakes.  I've heard of a problem with the Tarptent Rainbow in high winds.  I used a Tarptent Virga and a Six Moon Designs (SMD) Europa II for the PCT in '04, and liked the Tarptent better.  Lots of Henry's Tarptents on the PCT that year.  The new SMD tents sound like an improvement over the older ones, lots of folks seem to be trying them.
