Wow I see it is a 4 season tent with the snow flaps! Not bad.
Thanks for the link Silverthorne, and the price Wookie.

I was at Trappers on Sunday and saw the First Ascent Snow Dog tent. It is marked as R3700 in the shop but R5999 on their website. Also a 4 season tent but it can sleep 4 people. But it weighs 5kg...

For anyone concerned about reliability issues with 360 Degrees, check how the green tent handled this wind. It was pretty tricky to stay standing upright while filming this!

What brand/model was the red tent?

It's an older K-way, I think the model is a Treklite. From what I've heard, it has been very reliable up until this last hike.

The green tent looks like one of the original light weight 2 tents?

I have one of those an always thought it would do quite well in the wind

Often thought about adding "snow flaps" to it to limit air flow under the fly for berg use.
Have you ever felt the need for them?
