This sub-2-pound, single-wall shelter pitches with two trekking poles, yet it withstood strong, sustained storms in Utah’s Uintas. It also offers conveniences typically found in heavier, freestanding domes: plentiful organization and a 14-square-foot vestibule. Interior space is a tad stingy (29 sq. ft.), but packed size is stellar (5 x 20 inches): “I’ve grown zucchini bigger than this tent,” says our tester. $350; 1 lb. 14 oz.; bigagnes.com
