Are you upgrading?

[MicheleK]

I needed something smaller and lighter, and while I have always loved my Macpac, and am a bit sad to see it go because it is an awesome tent, I needed to shed weight in the tent department so that I could continue to carry a camera and tripod.

What tent are you considering to replace it?

[overlandnoob]

Tempted... will look at the bank account...

[Mickl]

I'd be curious to know what sort of tent you are thinking of changing to as well. Might be worth listing a type/weight as someone may have something they want to swap with you myself included.....

Just offering a thumbs up for the Microlight.
I bought one for three season cycle touring and have been amazed at its survival of some of the weather thats been chucked at it.
I'm so confident in its abilities now I no longer immediately reach for my Minaret simply because the weathers is looking a little shaky.
If I'm expecting days of being tent bound it can be a little on the claustrophobic side compared to my 2 man tent but over all I'm very happy with it.

Where was this one when I was ready to buy

Hi there,

Is this tent still available? I am interested in buying it - just joined the forums though so can't PM.

Thanks
Joni
