little Otter

First off - welcome to the lite gear site.

Secondly - you didn't fill out your profile so we don't know much about you.

Thirdly, we hear from a lot of newbies who intend to disappear into wilderness for 3 months in Alaska - its true. Do you have any qualifications for the trip?

Fourth - There is a wealth of information about single walled tents to be found by searching this site - someone will tell you how. And you get what you pay for whether its single or double walled.

and again welcome,

Jim
