Hey there folks,

Wondering what your thoughts might be on this tent and its design in the 4 season aspect. I'm not too experienced in the snow and wondering if it could handle a fair amount of snow fall, heavy winds and such.

Details are below

It is advertised as "4 season + snow performance"

Any thoughts fellas?

The fellers at Bogong tried hard to get me to upgrade to it.
When used with the addition of a pair of ski poles I imagine it would carry a big snow load before collapse

I used to own an old style second arrow and I can say they make very nice tents. The quality is exceptional.

Can confirm, the tent can take a substantial snow load. Took it out expecting a dusting- received a fair bit of fall, so much that we were trudging.
