clarksville....
does anyone here use a kelty clark tent?? outdooroutlet.com has them on sale for $89.95 which sounds like a pretty darn good deal to me if the tent is any good....

I had mine in the rain on the Manistee River Trail trip. I was sharing the tent with my four year old and didn't have any condensation problems. I got mine on sale for $99 last year and I'm very happy with it. My only complaint is that I can't sit up it but that's the case with all comparable tents. I would highly recommend it.

didjfan,

i think you're confusing it with the kelty dart.

I have a Clark. I have never been through any significant weather with it. I don't know about condensation. Around here the humidity causes condensation on just about any tent. I don't use my clark much since I got my Megamid. The megamid is lighter and about three times the size.

There is enough room in the Clark to move around and sit up, but the vestuble is small. I had a Eureka Solitare, but it was too small and sagged when it got wet. The Clark keeps the fly and tent nice and taunt.

bacpac,
You said, "There is enough room in the Clark to move around and sit up, but the vestuble is small." You must be a small man. :D
