Wow... I haven't heard the term pup tent in a long time. Is yours the classic canvas type, or the "new fangled" coated nylon?

The good news is there are a lot of options. On the really light side provided you don't mind crawling into your shelter is the Zpacks Hexamid which is 8oz. It's been great for my 5'10" frame and think someone 6'2" could work I think. I would second the recommendations of tarptent. My 6'2" friend has happily using them. If you want some extra room you might want to look at the Six Moon Designs Vamp tarp (16oz) + bug tent (11oz) which was specifically designed for taller folks. More thought on my recommended shelters page.
