Gary Walsworth's Review of Kelty Salida 2 Dome Tent - 2 Person, 3-Season
Did a lot of research to find a tent that would be light on my back and on my budget. This would not qualify for ultra-light , but pretty light for a 2-person tent. I checked out solo tents, but they seemed to claustrophobic. Camp Savors's price was awesome and I always have appreciated Kelty's quality. I pulled the trigger and ordered the tent. It arrived while I was out of town. The day I got back, was the same day I was to start a backpack trip on the Timberline Trail on Mt Hood. We arrived at our 1st camp well after dark. My son had also bought the same tent and had zero experience putting it up. I have read some reviews with concerns about putting this up, but I have to say that wasn't us. We had both tents up in less than 15 minutes, in the dark, using our head lamps. That alone made this a great choice. We used the Salida 2 for 3 nights. No rain, but some windy conditions. The tent worked great. I bought it for solo camping and there was plenty of room, as I expected. Some have mentioned condensation problems. Might be with 2 people, but I had no problems. Loved my 1st experience with the Salida 2 and looking forward to the next trip.
Pros:
Easy to put up and take down; roomy for one; easy to pack; stakes were light and did not bend.
Cons:
Could be lighter ( I would suggest more mesh and less heavier material); would like larger vestibule, but worked ok for on (Kept pack inside)
Would Recommend:
Yes
