Updated for 2022, form follows function in the design of the Rainshadow 3. The simple geometry offers wide floor space with lots of leg room and head space for three. At under a pound per person, the weight to size ratio of this tent makes it easy to pack on any trip. Best of all, the front entrance can be fully opened to offer spectacular, panoramic views and excellent ventilation.

I am very pleased with the rainshadow 3. At first I was concerned about condensation living in the midwest. I’ve tried it twice now in July – once in the backyard and once paddleboard camping. It took me a little bit to figure out setting up the rear stakes. You just loop the lines around the two outer stakes. Set up both times under a canopy of either bushes or trees. I opened the front rain fly door (think it would still shed rain) and unvelcrowed the back rain guard. Amazing airflow and no condensation. It is a palace for one and two would have plenty of room. Three might be a squeeze, but could work. It takes restaking it out a bit to pitch perfectly, but once you do it’s pretty roomy. I bought the provided real pole and I have not tried setting up with a trekking pole in the rear. Weight is excellent at about 3 pounds. Stuff sack is a little tight for getting the tent back in it. I used a polycro ground cloth under the tent body. The front zipper entry is pretty easy to get in and out of and there’s plenty of vestibule space.
