I really like the idea of the gatewood, but my issue with it is bugs - unfortunately in a lot of my hiking areas mosquitos are a serious serious thing - and by the time I get a serenity net tent in it I am just about up to the weight of the full on lunar solo - which I have, and like a lot.

Now, having said that what's interesting is that it fills a niche for me that I find I am using less and less. here's the shelters I own that I will use in a year:

1) SMD lunar solo
2) Black Diamond One Shot
3) Speer 8.5C hammock (with tarp)
4) WBB Blackbird hammock (with tarp)

Now interestingly those are in order of weight, from lightest to heaviest.

Most of the time If I am in sheltered campsites (with trees) I end up taking the hammock.

If I am going to be in campsites where hammocking is a problem I take the tent - but at least this year a lot of those trips I've been in some pretty exposed places. I've had the lunar solo and the one shot in both places, but prefer the one shot in really bad wind. So when I take a ground dwelling shelter, lately, I've been taking the one shot more.
