I’ve actually been thinking lately that being able to sit up in the tent might be nice, as would having enough room to change easily. Indecision… Fortunately I don’t have to decide for a while yet, ain’t gots da money.

I’m actually considering getting a 3/4 length Prolite 4 now instead of the Prolite 3. The Prolite 4 weighs the same as the full length Prolite 3 I have right now, but it’s ticker - so hopefully more comfortable and less painful on the hips.
My only concern with the Mircozoid is it looks like it requires at least 2 stakes to pull it out length wise. So what happens if it’s really rocky or the ground is too hard to stake it properly? The Hubba looks like it would stand on it’s own.
