One of the most important trail accessories for serious backpackers is a lightweight tent, as you don't want to trudge across miles of wilderness with extra pounds of poles and fabric. Enter the Sierra Designs Vapor Light 2, an ultralight tent that sleeps two people comfortably yet tips the scale at a mere 3 pounds 4 ounces. The tent is equipped with sturdy DAC Featherlite NSL poles, which undergo an anodization process during construction that is gentler on the environment than conventional methods. The tent's SuperSeal floor, meanwhile, combines the benefits of catenary and bathtub floors, with raised, PVC-free side seams to keep water out regardless of the conditions. And users needn't spend their first 15 minutes at the site fussing with a bunch of unruly poles and complicated instructions. Instead, the tent offers Spider Hub technology to keep all the poles locked in place, along with Jakes Feet at the tent corners for easily attaching the poles, fly, and footprint.

Despite its compact size, the tent is plenty large enough for two people. The D-shaped door and vestibule at the end allows two campers easy access and plenty of storage room, while the two small whisker poles (included with the front poleset) pull the top sides of the tent out for even more room. Other features include sleek Ball Cap assemblies for the whisker poles; Ulralight Clips and a color-coded main door/rainfly; and a ripstop nylon canopy with no-see-um mesh. The tent comes with stuff sacks, stakes, and a guyline.
