is this tent good for climbing mountains?

It's very light doesn't come with a carry case and we only use it for good weather camping. It wouldn't hold up in the rain or wind . It only fits 2 people comfortably also.

Yes it's very light but I don't think it would fold up small enough for you. Other than that it's a great tent.

Depends on how high the mountain is. There is a perpetual draft through the screen at the top of the tent - there is no zipper where you can close them with another layer of tent material - so it is not good for cold nights. I took this to Yellowstone at the end of the summer and froze my arse off.

I wish I could answer the question but I only used it for a small camping trip on the beach and I don't have any mountain climbing experience. It is easy to assemble but I am not sure that it would pack small enough for your needs.

I wouldn't recommend this tent in the snow or the wind. This Tent NEEDS to be staked down to stay up (not sure it would hold the weight of snow or gusts of wind. But is has a nice water proof base that comes up about a foot on the edges, so rain is ok.

Yes, and I'm using it right now in the mountains. Set it up by myself! For the second time. Insert the pins already attached to the tent, into the poles. Put in one pole bend then second pole bend, p/u, and then place the third.

Tent is great for backpacking (which is only what I use it for. I have a bigger one for car camping). It only weights about 3 lbs and I normally roll it up inside my foam pad.

This tent is designed for backpacking. The size of packed tent is small to fit in a backpacking bag. The poles are heavy though. Too heavy for me, but I'm myself 99 lb. Overall it is a good backpacking tent if you don't count every single gram.

Yes to all your questions. I love my easy up tent. It is built very strong and with weight bags it stays in please. I have been very happy with mine.

Not really, the tent stands about waist high and the sides slope at an angle that would be awkward to fit an army cot. This is best for an air mattress or a self inflating mattress. it is plenty wide for a backpackers equipment but due to the round broken down shape it is too awkward for any backpacker to carry.

I would say no. Although spacious, we found this tent really cumbersome and ended up trashing it after the first use.

I haven't had an oppurtunity to use the cabin tent yet, I'm planning on taking it out this July. From previous experiences the dome is the way to go if you are going to be in an exposed location, fortunatly the area I will be camping in will have minimum exposure to wind and ample anchor points.

The tent weighs around 3 1/2 pounds, and in my experience is quite light especially for the low price. As far as fitting in your hike pack it shouldn't be a problem, it packs down to a pretty small size. If you have anymore questions about the tent I would be happy to answer them.

Yes. This tent kicks ass for the price. I worked in special operations, and I know good gear, and this is good gear... especially for the price.

The tent is a little longer then other two-man tents I checked out, so that may be a good thing. Top is all mesh for view and ventilation, and the fly is very easy to put up and snaps to the bottom of the tent.I like it a lot and use it for everything. Does that help?

Yes,I live on a mt. top and high winds are common and this model has held up well.We had a 50 mph wind that broke the pole holding our two ant's.and it only did minor damage to the ant.This is a great value for your money .

it is small enought, I don't think it will have something shorter. Very easy to mountain.

Certainly! I use the tent as a 3.5 season tent. It gas performed very well for me, on rain, in snow, in hit humid conditions and in temps in the upper teens/ low 20s.
