    My new favorite on the AT?

    I'm section hiking the AT (NOBO). I get out for 1-2 weeks in the spring and fall.

    Striving to get close to ultra-lite pack weight, I started with a single wall tent. It was great in good weather when I could open the flaps for ventilation. When raining and blowing I had to close the flaps and then it rained inside my tent from condensation.

    Next I tried a free standing double wall tent. It was and still is really nice, unless I have to set up or tear down in the rain (frequent occurrence on the AT). Order of operations in set up is that the rain fly clips onto poles last, by which time inside of tent is already wet if raining. Two friends both have HMG UltaMid 2s. They keep the inner-net attached inside the tent all the time. Advantage is faster set up, and inner-net is protected from rain during set up and tear down.

    I own both UltaMid2 and UltaMid 4 tents. I love them for their durability but the UltaMid 2 is larger and heavier than I prefer for just myself when backpacking. Enter the UltaMid 1. Its double wall, light weight, compact for tent sites on the trail, and I can keep the inner-net connected for set up / tear down in the rain. I've slept in it at home. Its spacious enough for me and my gear. With the dedicated tent pole (I don't hike w/ trekking poles), guy lines and 10 stakes everything weighs in at less than 2 pounds.

    Look forward to taking it on the trail for two weeks in PA later this month.

    Thru-Hiker’s Dream

    The UltaMid1 saves me a lot of weight and gives me all the shelter I need in multi-day three season, rain and snow storms. And a windy, stormy, buggy situations, I don’t put the pole jack up and synch the tent down to the ground. I like an incense stick when I want to keep the bugs out. Great manufacturing and durable materials. The design allows you to open either the left side or right side of the vestibule, depending on tent slope. I added a stick-on clip from Zpacks to the top to hang a headlamp from the ceiling.

    Suggestion for improvement: add 2-3” length to the vestibule wall for those times you have the pole jack up and want to keep the sleeping side done closer to the ground. Then the vestibule side wouldn’t be as high.

    Home sweet home

    Just wrapped up a thru-hike of the Colorado Trail and utilized this as my shelter. It served me very well for this trip and I look forward to more adventures with it. Key takeaways - ultralight, low volume, storm worthy, quick drying, simple to setup, plenty spacious for one, cleverly featured, and just all around awesome! Highly recommend!
