Well designed awesomeness - Exped Gemini III Tent - 3 Person, 3 Season

I think highly enough of my first Exped tent that it was a no brainer when I decided it was time to phase out my old 3 man camper and replace it with another tent by Exped. It’s maiden outing was a perfect test: hours of non-stop downpour accompanied by heavy gusting winds. Not so much as a whimper! The large entrances made it easy to get in and out of quickly. The interior space belies it’s actual size and the interior features: hanging loops and side pockets are numerous and useful. The Gemini has been around for quite a while, now, but the design remains well ahead of the vast majority of others without being the least bit complicated or over engineered. Also, I love that when it’s nice outside, but there’s a chance of rain, you can unclip one side of the fly and roll back to expose a full half of the tent and still be quickly returned to full coverage with two quick connections. All in all, a fantastic tent that goes up and comes down quickly, packs easily, is lightweight and very well designed.
