Marmot Aura 2P Tent
Marmot Aura 2P Tent - Great for summer camping.
When a tent makes Outside Magazines Gear of the Year list, you have to give it a look. The Marmot Aura 2P Tent is one such tent. This award winning tent is designed for three season use, but really shines in warm weather conditions. Its mesh walls make for an unforgettable night under a star filled Montana sky.
The Marmot Aura 2P Tent might be the perfect two person, three season tent. It might not be as roomy as some other two person backpacking tents, but it is still super comfy. While the square footage might not be up there, the Marmot Aura 2P Tent offers a door on each side of the tent to help aid in keeping everyone comfortable. If the rain fly is setup, there are also two vestibules so that you can each store your won gear on your side of the tent.
With the Marmot Aura 2P Tent you also get a backpacking tent that is incredibly lightwieght. No more arguing on who has to carry the tent and who carries the poles. Both are equally as light with the Marmot Aura 2P Tent. Mash canopy walls help make the tent lighter and DAC Featherlite NSL poles make the poles tough and light.

In near perfect conditions, you can setup the Marmot Aura 2P Tent with just the poles, rainfly, and ground cloth for an ultralight tent.
