ALPS Mountaineering - Zephyr 2-Person

I also have an alps mountaineering zephyr 2, it's more of a backpacking tent, sleeps 2, and has 2 doors. also, kelty makes a good small one. we have several because we each had one coming into the relationship. we bought the half dome together. we were lucky enough to get the mt rainier one.

I second this! Have had my Zephyr 2 for a little while and love it. Never any leaks and the poles are very good quality

It's heavier due to the material being 68 denier, which is going to make it more durable. At 4lbs I would look at Alps Mountaineering for a 2 person tent at roughly the same weight, price point, and with a footprint tossed in.

I kind of have a soft spot for and like this style of tent (I had an alps brand 2p version that i used for myself and my dog, it was reasonably priced), but I gave mine to a friend in favor of switching to an "ultralight" freestanding tent instead. If i was only planning to camp in places where i knew i would be able to stake into the ground I might have kept it.

I have never used an Ozark Trail tent, but I have used other store brand tents. My experience is the difference between a cheap tent and a half decent tent is waking up with a puddle in your tent. I recommend an Alps Mountaineering tent, but they will run you 100-150.

No. Just get an Alps Mountaneering and save yourself a lot of aggravation.
