Really worth the extra $$. Easy to put up and down. Packs down small too. Footprint is way too expensive tho.
I love this tent. The additional opening directly out without having to go thru the vestibule is a game changer. I have myself and my 2 large huskies inside and it's awesome. The big gear storage at the foot end keeps my gear away from the dogs and makes it easy to find stuff. I've used it in summer and snow camping in winter - although a little chilly- it's been great. The floor is VERY lightweight so I had a tarp on top to protect from sticks below or claws above. It's great to be able to sit up and have heaps of space.
I'm loving this tent. Have done a few trips now and I wouldn't change a thing. I'm 1.90m tall and fit good. Would be a squeeze with 2 people. Vestibules are a good size. I got the footprint because the floor is like gladwrap, super thin. Very easy to put up and take down. You can set it up and then pick it up from the top and reposition it easy enough. The pegs are fine. I like being able to sit up inside.
Although I have not been able to get the tent out in the wilderness yet I have tested it in the back yard, it's a well made tent of quality materials, extremely roomy and comfortable and with a high ceiling combined with three doors make it easy to exit, a bonus when you are getting on in age, at approximately 1.8kg makes it a lightweight package for what you get
Loving the Salt Creek! Some really great design touches make pitching and dropping very quick and simple. Heaps of internal room, and the big gear loft at the foot end is super useful. The vestibules are much bigger than our other tent too - plenty of room for pack and boots without touching the fly. An unexpected bonus is that pack down is easy with the end door - open it up and shake out all the leaves and dead sand flies in a jiffy. The claimed weight is spot on too. Definitely get a foot print to match - the floor is really light, but we haven't had any issues so far. Stoked!
