NEMO Equipment - Hornet OSMO

That type of tent is not what you are looking for at all. The key selling point is that it's extremely lightweight and that's important to those who are carrying this as their shelter for weeks or months at a time. The reason you see so many influencers recommending them is that the "influencers" are compensated in one way or another to do so. Tons of downside though: * Dyneema is a very strong material, but its abrasion resistance sucks. If you aren't extremely careful you will wear a hole in it either from setting it up on the ground or packing it incorrectly. * Their tents are all single-wall, which is fine if you are prepared for potential condensation issues but it's very common to be packing up a wet tent even if it didn't rain. If it does rain then there's a high likelihood of the condensation causing some rain inside the tent too. Again, this is a compromise made to save weight. * The price tag is simply insulting and there are a number of other manufacturers making similar tents for less money. Look for a tent made of out of a more traditional material (sil-nylon or sil-poly) and understand that many lightweight and ultralight tents also cut weight by making the tents ridiculously small. I have a 2P Nemo ultralight tent which is perfect for me alone, but would be nearly impossible for two people unless one was a small child. Nemo and Big Agnes both make good lightweight tents that offer good durability and local store convenience. Tarptent also makes an excellent product in a wide variety of shapes and intended applications. I have a couple of their ultralight tents and am very pleased with them. If they're still making it then the Double Rainbow DW (double wall) is an excellent option and a great compromise between weight, durability and moisture control.

Used my nemo 45 nights this past summer, still looks new.

The Durston tents are awesome. I have the 1 person with the separate poles (very lightweight). It's so light and easy to pitch. I use this one backpacking. I have the Nemo Osmo 2p tent for when I want a little more room and don't care so much about the weight (it's still very lightweight considering).I use this one car or canoe camping, like I said, when weight isn't so much an issue. It's very roomy inside and the "landing zone" in the vestibule is great for keeping gear dry and off the ground without having to bring them inside the tent.

Doesn’t help when you’re on top of the mountain in the pouring rain :) Edit this sounds a bit harsh. NEMO makes good tents I’ve owned a couple. These days I just prefer something a bit heavier.

Nemo makes great tents. i have two, one has been with me since 2012 and still works great. i got another one last year with more room cuz i have more dogs. i like that they sell internal floors to keep dogs from making holes with their paws. i also love how easy they are to set up, and how durable the materials seem to be.

I was going to recommend this tent as well. I have had it since it came out and I use it without a footprint without issues . I use it motocamping because the poles fold down small enough to fit in a saddlebag. I have setup on gravel, pinecones, and some generally terrible sites and the floor has held up fine. It’s tight for two adults but my son fits in it just fine with me.

I have a Nemo Hornet OSMO 2p and it is by far my favorite motocamping tent. The poles fold down small and it takes up very little space.

There are a few shelters that use trekking poles as supports. I have a Nemo that’s about the size as a Nalgene bottle.

packed sized is 10"x5". [Large softball...](https://www.gossamergear.com/en-ca/products/the-one) This being said, L x W makes it a 3.3L packed size. Very small indeed. The Unbound is 4 6L, the Nemo Hornet is 4.3L, the BA Tiger Wall 6.6L and the Lofoten packs 2L. A clear winner but is more a bivvy than a tent -- you hardly can sit inside, and it is apparently sold out...

I have the Nemo, but I got it brand new on Marketplace for a killer deal. I’m not sure I would have bought it otherwise. That being said, I love how light it is, the easy setup, and the 2P is pretty spacious (but I’m a smaller female, so take that for what it’s worth). Like a couple others have said, my next tent will probably be a Durston.

Tent: MSR or Nemo, sleeping bag: Nemo (the lightest warmest I’ve found) knife folding knife I’d use a Swiss army “Ranger” model, if its a folding knife sans that I’d use a fixed blade like a Pathfinder knife shop “scorpion or Kephart” the kephart is my favorite personally. It’s always good to have multiple tools for sure sometimes they fail. Additionally if you’re going to be in any remote areas take 2 ways to make fire whether that’s 2 lighters or a lighter and a ferocerium rod doesn’t matter. Ans water water water, and some way to filter said water. I’ve had situations even near or in towns where I needed water and had some but couldn’t purify it and a metal container of you can canteen or stainless non vacuum single wall water bottle if you have that and fire you’ll have purified water. Enjoy your walk sounds like fun to me
