Hi,

I searched around, and while there were a few posts with some good information on tents, I thought I might still benefit from posting a direct question.

I am planning a backpacking/camping trip through some areas that are warm, humid and will probably have frequent rain. I've decided my old tent is not going to get the job done, and am in the market for a new one.

I would really like suggestions on what people have found to be the best all around tents for warm-weather camping. Ie. good ventilation, water-proofing etc.

It may go without saying, but in addition to my concerns about ventilation and weatherproofing, I would like to get the smallest (when packed) and lightest *two man* tent I can find.

Ideally I would like to spend $300~ or less, but if there's something than seems to be head and shoulders above the rest, I would consider spending more.

Thanks for your input!
