There are lighter and probably better shelters available from the various "cottage" manufacturers such as Tarptent, Mountain Laurel Designs, Gossamer Gear, ZPacks, Hyperlite Mountain Gear, Bear Paw Tents, Lightheart Gear, to name a few. GoLite, unfortunately, seems to be going heavier. A lot of folks still like their shelters, though.
