## Questions & Answers

**Q: How much does this weigh?**
A: Around 6 pounds, give or take a couple ounces. That includes everything- tent, fly, footprint, stakes, and poles.

**Q: How’s the ventilation? I’ll be in fairly warm weather occasionally.**
A: Very good

**Q: i just wonder if it is heavy for a girl to carry in backpack as i see it is 6 pounds?**
A: It’s heavy by today’s standards.  The MSR Hubba Hubba NX 2 is a lighter (and more expensive) tent by the same manufacturer.  They look very similar in the pictures, but the Hubba Hubba uses more high-tech materials.

**Q: Will tent stakes work that are width: 1.38inch. diameter of the hole: 0.42inch? I have to use different stakes because I need special ones for sand**
A: Yes, the loops are big enough to accommodate just about any type of stake—you’ll be pulling the corners out to keep even the loops taught
