Vault (SDE-080-IV-US)

Depending on how much you want to spend, I love our snow peak vault tent. It’s like a double wall tent, so you never have to worry about condensation.

Even backpacking I will “size-up” a tent. Just me? 2p tent. Me & misses? 3p or even 4p. my car camping is a 4p Snow Peak since weight doesn’t matter and it’s got comfort down.

i’d skip all the other options and grab the snow peak. their stuff is just so high quality.

You can try to buy the snow peak used from someone (if you can find one). I don’t think anything is worth that high price tag. But I can tell you that tent is SUPER nice, well ventilated, roomy, and beautiful. My friend has one and I was jealous, but even he said he bought it discounted

383 is a steal, I think my friend got his for 480 ish (after tax) Yes 4 of us hung out comfortably in there! I also loved how tall it was, you can probably stand up straight even as a tall person. my friends and I were all around 5’3-5’7 range. Standing up straight in a tent is a game changer If you end up getting more snow peak stuff to match (like the tarp canopy), the vibes are immaculate. I think in the long run this is more of a forever tent whereas the eureka you may get bored of the color and style someday and upgrade to snow peak anyways once you’re more invested in camping I will say that setting up this snow peak tent is more moderate difficulty but once you’re used to it it’ll be fine

Why would you consider big Agnes when snow peak is an option. Snow peak will always have a better product so it really comes down to do you want to spend more on snow peak or are you ok with Big Agnes. I love snow peak and have a decent amount of their stuff but it always comes down to can I afford the upgrade to snow peak. From the sounds of it and the other tents you have you are willing to spent top $ on your gear so I would say don’t stop now and go snow peak.

North face stormbreak was my only tent for years. I’ve got a snow peak now that I adore, but I was always impressed by the waterproofing.
