Hello,

i require a tent for a trip to zambia. I have a coleman boa which is fab but think it will be too warm!
I would like a tent with two entrances both with mozzy doors, two skin pref and not too heavy, mebbe 2kgs? don't mind either 1/2 person tent. There will be no rain i think...

Kind regards,

Alan-

MSR Zoid2, would be my suggestion. Pretty cheap as well. Check out www.cheaptents.com
I've seen them used in Chris Townsend features in TGO which is a pretty good stamp of approval. (Not sure if he only used them to make in tent photography easier though.)

Thanx folks, looks good and light too. Looked at the MSR hubba hubba too dont know if youve heard of it? (bizarre name..)I guess a tent with a seperate inner made of mozzie proof material (not familiar with technical terms!) would be good too so I could just set up the inner and have the breeze blow through.This is fairly crucial as it will be 30-40 degrees and not sure what at night!

all you need is an inner pitch first tent then you can just use the inner, most will do this, hubba has more head room than zoid, more equivalent to marmot early light
