The g2 trek is a very spacious two-person, three-pole semi-geodesic tent that is ideal for backpacking, trekking and camping all year round. There is plenty of room to spread out in, making it ideal for extended stays at base camp, or camping in winter where extra-bulky sleeping bags and clothing seem to take up all the space. In fact, there is enough room to sleep three at a squeeze. For all its roominess, the g2 trek still weighs only 2.7 kg, has a good balance of strength and durability, and comes at an affordable price. The porch area is generous, but those wanting more storage or cooking space can choose the extended vestibule version – click here for the g2 trek xt.
