Best all-around 2 person tent available - Eureka Timberline 2-Person Tent

You'll never have the lightest tent for backpacking - split the weight with a partner.

You'll never have the flashiest tent in camp - no built in lights, no front porch.

You'll never need to worry about getting wet, or having your tent fall down. Ever. Mine is over 20yrs old, and it's still waterproof. It kept me dry in a cyclone near miss outside Sydney. It opened enough to let cooling breezes in yet keep the sun off in Mali. I stayed warm in Greenland, and dry in Scotland. And in many, many a National and State park all over the place, it's kept me dry, warm, and sheltered against bugs, sun, rain and wind.

You'll find lighter, flashier, and larger tents. But you'll never find better, especially at this price.
