[at-l] Nomad 2-4-2

[dennis@bcontech.com (Dennis Gass)]

I'm seriously considering the Nomad 2-4-2 but I have not seen one in
person yet.  Is there someone in the North Atlanta (North Georgia) area
that has one and is willing to let me take a look at it?  I'm pretty
flexible on being able to come to location of your choice at time
convenient to you.

If you have an opinion of the tent and would like to send it to me
offlist please feel free to do so.  I would love to hear the info, but
hopefully without flooding the list.

>From the www.wanderlustgear.com web site I have checked out the specs of
the Nomad lite and 2-4-2.  The 17 square feet of additional floor space
and 15 inches of headroom in the 2-4-2 over the lite appear to be worth
the extra one ounce of tent weight and two stakes.  I'm looking for a 1+
person tent that I can bring all of my gear (less food and smellables)
inside and still have room to move around in.  I'm currently using a
North Face Canyonlands and it meets all of my goals in a shelter other
than weight at 3 pounds 7 ounces.  Giving up close to a pound and a half
while gaining square footage kind of has my attention.

Constructive input from the experienced and experts welcomed. 

Thanks,

Dennis
