Tent
This was my first time running a Six Moon Designs shelter, and the Haven has a lot going for it—simple pitch, modular inner/outer options, and a solid lightweight approach. In cold wind, though, my pitch taught me a lesson: set that ridgeline too high and you’ll invite airflow under the edges.
You'll be taken to Alnk to complete your purchase.
Pros
- +Modular setup (tarp only, inner only, or paired together)
- +Straightforward, simple pitch
- +Lightweight for a 2-person style trekking-pole shelter
Cons
- -Can be flappy in wind unless you guy it out
- -Pitch height matters a lot; gaps can let cold air move through
- -Weight and price compete closely with other popular options in the same range
