Good for the price if it suits your style of camping The Mountain Shelter LT seems pretty nice. Not the best, but for the price and weight, not a bad deal. It was somewhat awkward to put up, though oddly enough I set it up better the first time than the second. It was bigger than I expected(roughly 6×10). I think my tarp was 6×8 and it left the vestibule area uncovered. I carried a tarp as a footprint, but a tent material footprint would be more ideal(more compact and lighter weight). With the right material, you could store it directly in…
Excellent Value with Outstanding Quality. I absolutely consider this shelter a five star product. After putting it through a good evaluation on the Uinta Highline trail, I feel like I can accurately describe it’s usefulness.
Economical entry into floorless tarp. I purchased this shelter this fall as an attempt to reduce weight but not comfort in my backpack hunting setup. I’ve spent a couple of nights in in and I am impressed. This is my first floorless tarp shelter, I thought it would take some getting used to, but I adapted pretty quickly. The first night was pretty windy, I expected a problem, but to the tarp held up well and stayed put. The second night it rained a little and nothing came under the tarp.
