I switched from an EZ-up style tent to one of these: http://www.gazelletents.com/gazelle-6-sided-portable-gazeboThey are lighter, faster, and a little better in bad whether. Also good bug protections. Still has the problems everyone else mentioned, but to a lesser degree.Not right for every situation, but mine gets a lot of use.
So when you say back country camp you don't intend to pack this in very far do you? Or are you meaning car camping?
You might want to talk to @ghosthunter about using a portable carport as a tent. He uses one. I believe it's more used as a cook shack, but might be something you'd want to consider.
