Naturehike Star River 2 Person Tent 4 Season Ultralight Tent 2 Person Camping Waterproof Tent for Backpacking Hiking Traveling Camping

Product Information

The upgraded version has fixed many small issues with the first version, making this a really comfortable and reliable tent. I’d absolutely recommend it for two people, and you’ll have enough space to bring along your dog, too.

For example, you should spray your tent with a waterproof coating after each heavy rainfall because some of the protection inevitably washes away in a storm. For the vast majority of campers and climates, though, Naturehike tents are a comfortable and reliable choice. The rainfly and floor are made from 20D polyester with a 4000mm waterproof index, a silicon-coated fabric with fully taped seams. The Mongar is able to keep you dry under tropical downpours if set up properly. The poles look durable, made of 7001 aluminum. Carrying Whether you are doing a short day walk or you are looking to do a longer expedition for a few days, the load carrying kit that you use to transport all your other gear can be the difference between making it to the end and cutting your trip short.

Forget the Cloud Up 2. I have it and love it but it's a one-plus person tent, room for kit and a dog or child but not two adults in comfort - only one entrance small vestibule. This tent will keep you warm and dry for a weekend trip in foul weather but it’s not going to perform as well as the Hilleberg at high altitudes or in extreme climates, so don’t let appearances fool you. Does this sound like it can create condensation? Yes, it does – and indeed condensation is can be an issue with the Star River 4 seasons. Be sure to orient the vents downwind to minimize the problem.

If you choose the version of the Star River with the snow skirt, remember that a snow skirt can flap about if there’s no snow to hold it down which could be annoying when you are trying to sleep and could allow cold wind to penetrate underneath the snow skirt – just something to bear in mind.

Naturehike Star River: Verdict

If you go for the upgraded version, you’ll have a second vent in the sleeping compartment, which will reduce condensation and cool down your tent in the summer. Just like with the Mongar 2, it has two vestibules and two doors, so you can store your kit outside the main sleeping compartment. The outer fly is made from 20D Nylon, with a hydrostatic head rating of 4000mm. Although this is better than the more standard 2000mm, it’s still a little short of the 5000mm that some other 4-season tents offer. Still, it should be enough for all but the very wettest weather. The specs above both apply to the green and grey versions of the tent. The orange version is made of 210T Polyester, with a 3000mm head. The poles and pegs are both made of Aluminium. Size & Weight Typically, people say the comfort and dimensions are very good for its weight. The two doors and two vestibules make camping a lot easier, and users report staying warm and dry in foul weather. A little condensation does occur, but the vents and the possibility of slightly opening the access door while leaving the door mash close will solve the problem in any condition that is not too cold.
