Though there are newer designs in 4 person tents on the market, nothing in my opinion beats the time-tested design of the Timberline. PRO: The A-frame design makes for a great, dry tent, that is especially nice to use in rainy weather because the overhangs keep the rain out and lets the air circulate through the tent. Rarely have I ever needed to completely zip up the windows....only on extremely stormy nights. PRO: The fabric under the rain fly is breathable so rarely have I experienced condensation in the tent, even on humid nights or frigid, sub-zero nights. PRO: Because the fabric under the fly is breathable, when using the tent in shoulder seasons where snowy nights are possible, you DO NOT have to put up with snow coming in by blowing up under the fly and going through a mesh wall -- like most tents nowadays. The breathable fabric of the Timberline keeps that from happening. PRO: The tent is warmer in shoulder seasons for the same reason as above: icy winds that blow up under the fly hit the breathable fabric instead of passing through cheap mesh like most modern tents. Zip up the windows and the Timberline is fine for light winter camping. PRO: The height of the tent enables you to string up a little wash line to dry socks etc. without them drooping down onto your sleeping bag. CON: there isn't as much "sitting room" as a dome tent, you have to sit towards the center line of the tent......but this is mitigated by the much better ventilation than a dome tent. CON: Might be heavier that some new "wonder tents".....who cares? It just plain works. If you like gear that lives up to expectations, and just plain works, rather than the latest and greatest reviewed gear, then give the classic Timberline a try.Read full review

This tent is an excellent combination of relatively large size and extreme ease of setup. This is my second Timberline 4; the first one lasted many years, but finally needed to be replaced. I can (and have) set it up in the dark without a flashlight--it is that easy, I consider it too heavy for backpacking, but comparatively light for other camping. Roomy for two, tight for three, not big enough for four.
