Nemo Hornet Tent
At 2lb 6 oz packed weight for a 2-person tent this is about as ultralight as it gets! NEMO makes some incredibly solid gear that do a great job withstanding the elements. 85" x 51"/43" dimensions on this one so enough room for 1 person and plenty of extra gear or a 2-person endeavor with space in the vestibules for storage. 1-pole system makes it incredibly easy to set up and take down. The Nemo Hornet's rain fly is secure AND easy to attach. You can set this bad boy up in all conditions, including some less than ideal (think mountain lake at night in some nasty winds).

The Hornet being a 3 season tent allows for versatility along with the ultralight allowing for extensive backcountry trips. Combining durability, breathability, and extreme lightweight coming in at just under two pounds packaged weight, the Hornet provides good space and comfort!

The best option for those looking for the lightest weight, high quality tent! Nemo makes tents that have a great reputation for withstanding the elements.









Nemo Aurora Tent w/ Footprint
This is a spacious 3-season tent from a high quality brand. It comes with an included footprint which will help protect the floor of the tent and extend its life, and its packed weight is 6lbs 8oz. It's perfect for using while backpacking and car camping alike!

Relatively lightweight, 3-season camping. More room and headspace than Nemo's ultralight models.

Backpacking trips or just a great all around multi-use tent.

Nemo Dragonfly Tent
This thing basically weighs nothing. The 1 person option weighs 2 lbs 10 oz - super lightweight and high quality. NEMO makes some solid gear - their tents last for years! This one has large doors with versatile vestibules, a high-arching main pole for a lofty feel, and super easy setup with color-coded poles and matched webbing.
