Mountain Hardwear Casa 6 Tent 6-Person 3-Season

Mountain Hardwear Casa 6 Tent 6-Person 3-Season description

Mountain Hardwear used its new Crosshub pole structure to make the Casa 6 six-person, three-season tent spacious inside and a cinch to set up. This six-person Mountain Hardwear tent has merely two poles. One pole arches over the entrance, branches on both sides to create both sidewall and roof support, and snakes to the back of the tent. The other pole helps support the back end of the tent. Aside from being easy to pitch, this structure results in practically vertical walls, so you can use more of the Casa 6's interior room. Put on the fly, and you get more than 30 square feet of vestibule area as well as a watertight fortress against wet weather. On a warm day, take off the fly and let the breeze blow gently through this tent's mesh windows.

Bottom Line: Mountain Hardwear's Casa 6 es su casa in the woods, and your whole family's casa, as well.

Great tent. With a bit more headroom and larger or second vestibule area and a window or two, I'd give it 5 stars indeed. Ok so it's designed for weather resistance, I've not had it in a rain storm yet. I like camping according to weather locally. Two people comfortably on one inflatable mattress, 3 maybe on individual quarters, one more and I'd have to stay in the car, I'm average build. We use a Queen sized 2 pc airbedin here and have just enough room on either side and at foot of bed to maneuver. An absolute cinch to pitch or strike. Like a dream. Lightweight enough for me for a short backpack trip (only one strap on cover bag though). This tent took the place of a returned Kelty Mantra7, and I am fully satisfied with it.I would like to see out though when animals come snorting and stampeding by at 2am and stop nearby...somewhere, oh and what exactly were they running FROM? Search me, a good rain fly seems not to include a visual ability, rather to keep you from the elements. No problems with the fly and ventilation. This Casa 6 breathes very well, so in temps below 50's, better have a warm bag to sleep in. Cleans easily and sweeps out just fine when you hold the tub floor down a tad. Zippers, so far so good. All in all, you have 2 poles serving 6 purposes with the 3 way hubs. You place tent, put shock corded poles in place as a frame, you clip tent to frame, place fly when time comes using same frame pole ends. Remove pole end from grommet and place fly grommet over end and tent grommet and return to ground or fly grommets. So simple it's a dream to set up.
