Color Preference??? “I am going to order this guy right now... http://www.sixmoondesigns.com/shop/shopexd.asp?id=36 What color would you get? They have it in green and grey. My favorite color is grey, but I have never owned a green tent. Which one should I buy?” 1:52:45 PM 9/22/05 “Which one goes better with your eyes?” 1:54:07 PM 9/22/05 “Probably the green” 1:55:31 PM 9/22/05 “WK, if you want to hide, get the grey. If you want people to see you and you like cheery colors, get the green. I like that tent. It looks doable!” 1:56:11 PM 9/22/05 “Lime Green is pretty cool! You will be the coolest hiker out there!” 1:56:25 PM 9/22/05 “Get the green one. And by green one I mean the $60 green tarp at Campmor and take the $190+ and buy some good scotch. :)” 2:00:14 PM 9/22/05 “Does either color make you look fat?” 2:00:40 PM 9/22/05 “Go with the lime green jellow colored one.” 2:02:40 PM 9/22/05 “I wish I could drink scotch! Nothing could make me look fat, you know that Bit. Pixie kinda hit on it above. Will the green be better for a reason or the grey?” 2:03:57 PM 9/22/05 “Well, this is sorta a "believe-it-or-don't" thing, but hardcore LNT'ers believe that your tent color should blend in more with the forest. Like I said, believe it or don't. However, should you get into a situation where you need to be found, the lime green would probably be best.” 2:06:11 PM 9/22/05 “My Bibler Bivy weighs the same, so this is pretty darn good! Note: Does not include tent poles and stakes! It needs 6 stakes (3 oz total as they sell them) and a tent pole (1.8 oz) unless you can use your trekking pole. So I think it will be heavier than my Bivy in the end, but not that much. It looks like a good alternative to a Bivy bag for those that don't like them.” 2:08:02 PM 9/22/05 “I think dlm has one of those.” 2:09:26 PM 9/22/05 “I like that it isn't single wall. Good for us folks that live in a climate that has a lot of condensation issues. WK, I personally like cheery colors. And if you like to camp out in hunting areas, being seen is a good thing. ; )” 2:11:16 PM 9/22/05 “I bought the green one to match my eyes. These are special stakes pitts. A review I read from someone said he had planned to use stakes from his other tent, but you need the long ones. I will be using a trekking pole with it as well. You will be able to see it on the Mammoth Cave trip.” 2:11:53 PM 9/22/05 “Sweet! I'll wait to see if it blows over in the hurricane force winds and blowing sleet before I buy one. :)” 2:12:45 PM 9/22/05 “Hey lookit thet thar funny-cullered teyent. Ah thank Ah'll put a roun through it, jest to say whut happuns.” 2:13:09 PM 9/22/05 “Geez, I remember you as having red eyes, WK. last edited: 9/22/05 2:16:08 PM” 2:13:43 PM 9/22/05 “By the way, if I were to bring another tent home my wife would make me live in it for about 6 months in the front yard! The last one was for sure the straw!” 2:14:32 PM 9/22/05 “Buy the color that goes best with the rest of your gear.” 2:15:46 PM 9/22/05 “either gray or yellow. they don't have yellow...so it must be gray. that's an ugly green btw.” 2:17:14 PM 9/22/05 “Hard to find a periwinkle tent” 2:17:17 PM 9/22/05 “I like the green. It's good to be able to find your tent. And yet green doesn't stand out like a sore thumb. Green is good. All my shelters are green except for one. If it had come in green I'd have gotten it.” 2:21:44 PM 9/22/05 “ItAin'tGem, just who do you think you are?? That's an odd choice of colors, lady.” 2:25:37 PM 9/22/05 “Pixie said it's not a single wall tent, but isn't it? Talks about a canopy over the mesh, but isn't that just a small area of overlap? And sure, it has a vestibule I've got the TarpTent and have a vague idea how these things work. LOL!” 3:33:17 PM 9/22/05 “grey is my fave color too! although green is a close second. just get both!” 3:34:33 PM 9/22/05 “Funny, I'd have figured you for black or red, or possibly black spattered with red...” 3:35:27 PM 9/22/05 “spattered, huh? how about dripping. don't make me whip out my Halloween name, bucko!” 3:37:30 PM 9/22/05 “I have a poncho that green color. The grey is much nicer and blends better IMHO.” 3:45:25 PM 9/22/05 “What a cute tent! Go with the grey. What exactly does "Capacity: One Plus People" mean?” 3:52:01 PM 9/22/05 “It means you gotta cuddle.” 3:54:49 PM 9/22/05 “That's not always a bad thing, depending on who's in the tent with you.” 3:56:21 PM 9/22/05 “I ain't sharing with you zac!” 4:03:38 PM 9/22/05 “Oh, come on. You're no fun.” 4:04:42 PM 9/22/05 “Well, okay. Let's spoon” 4:05:43 PM 9/22/05 “who cares what color, buy one for me while you're at it ;)” 5:18:23 PM 9/22/05 “Right” 10:54:52 PM 9/22/05 “What exactly does "Capacity: One Plus People" mean?” It means Multiple personalities. No it doesn't... Yes it Does....SHut Up!....MMMFPHMMPH!![i]” 11:08:10 PM 9/22/05 “it means you and your mini-me --looks like a condensation tent to me, idunno. You can have it any color that's yellow or lime. Yellow says to the rangers 'hey, over here!' and lime / green says 'hey, I'm hiding, but I'm over here!' last edited: 9/23/05 7:47:48 AM” 7:41:13 AM 9/23/05
