Hi there,

I'm wondering if anyone's had experience with the old Denali Cirrus line of tents? I'm looking for a 3-season tent for the husband and myself to use on 2-3 night treks. Saw a two-man one on ebay but I know nothing about them.

Comments on useability/quality?

Thanks.

I've not used a Denali tent but have looked at several in Anaconda. They look OK, definitely not top quality but should last a while with moderate use. They are clearly not 4 season tents (most have mesh inners - cold at night, not sure about the cirrus) and are a bit on the heavy side (2.3kg for a small 2 man tent - you probably won't have room for two of you and gear in the tent). IMO there are much better tents for the price new, but if you get a good price 2nd hand on ebay then the tent should be OK in most situations. BTW, from memory the price new for 2 man Denali tents in Anaconda when on sale (is there any other way to buy there?) is about $100 to $150, IMO they are not worth the $250 to $300 retail.

Thanks for the fast response. Cost is a bit of a factor, but so is space... Your response was pretty on the money about that.
