OK, going to try and breath some life back into this thread.

Does anybody have any input on the golite imogene UL2?  it seems to be a super light tent for the money.  that and a foot print and still be under 3lbs?

http://www.golite.com/Imogene-UL2-P47000.aspx

Looking for input, because the other tents in that price range are more expensive.

I don't know anything about those tents but I know their Shangri La teepees get good reviews. I've been told to look at them for a sleeping bag. They do have sales from time to time also.

defiantly a one man tent . I have a light weight three man that works for two . rei model works good if you have another guy packing in if not that one looks sweet. I have a wiggly sleeping system that's killer and you only need the inner bag 90% of the time.

i am upgrading bags as well, and the golite bags are fairly high on my list.  Let me know if you see sales.
