Wecshel Exogen 2 Tent

The Wecshel Exogen 2 is sturdy, weather-resistant, spacious for a two-person tent and has a freestanding design. It does, however, have poor ventilation in hot weather, is slightly heavy for ultralight backpackers and the inner-first pitching can be tricky in rain. Overall, it’s a great tent for cooler climates, but not great for hot, humid conditions. It’s worth the price if it fits your needs.
