Zpacks Duplex - The Good and Bad - Gear Review

Описание: Hey there. You may have noticed that we changed the name of the channel to The Ultralight Mindset. You'll still find tons of videos related to ultralight backpacking, hiking, and outdoor content, but also tips on living with less (ultralight) in your day to day life.
Thanks for watching!

The Zpacks Duplex is a fantastic ultralight shelter, but it does have a few quirks. I have spent a lot of nights backpacking with this tent. Some great, some not so great. After quite a few discussions on and off trail, it seems to me that there are a lot of questions and concerns when it comes to the duplex. Are the doors hooks difficult? Will people see me changing clothes? Whats this mysterious water in the bathtub floor? Is there insane condensation? I am no expert, but there are definitely a few things that I wish I would have known when I first purchased the tent. So, I thought I would share some of my experience with the duplex, GOOD and BAD. I must say I'm quite comfortable, now that we've gotten to know each other.
Happy Hiking!

Oh.....and please share any experience or suggestions you may have in the comments below. Thanks

Ultralight is all about hiking with only the things you really need and nothing else. Approach your gear choices the same way.
Don't just lighten your pack, lighten your footprint!
********************************
I do not except money for positive reviews. I give my honest opinions good or bad for all pieces of gear with no exception. Occasionally I may do a "First Look" review of a NEW piece of gear, but I will always state that in the video.
