This is Buffalo Moon Expedition’s Long Rider’s Review of the Spitfire Eureka 2, Two Man Tent. For back country horse camping but particularly for long riding solo with one horse across the country. This tent gets my thumbs WAY up as it fits perfectly in trailmax’s cantle pocket with room to spare. This tent will hold 2 adults, two saddles, two pack saddles and two sets of panniers and a dog if need be. it would be cozy…but it can handle it. Coming it at a very lightweight 4.3lbs/2.1kilos this is one of the lightest weight tents of this size for it’s price. They beat REI hands down on their CampDome2 for room which I have used as well. They even get my vote for BEST TENT as DOME TENTS take a few minutes longer to set up. This takes about 2 minutes and 1 more minute for the fly. Check it out long riders… BEST BANG for you buck and best way to pack a tent for Long Riding or Primitive Camping out with your horses! Here are the specifications.

This is an amazingly roomy tent. It provides an 48 sq feet of living area within a very portable 7 lbs 7 oz carry weight (and that’s my upgraded carry to include tarp footprint and 10 MSR “Groundhog” tent stakes too; factory weight is listed at 6 lbs 6 oz). Add even more space for the two large vestibules that are provided by the tent fly. This roominess provided outstanding livability to us three backpackers on a wilderness adventure to high altitudes (me, son, dog). Three people could fit in a more cozy manner. Mesh integration is excellent. Pole attachment is via both clip and uncoated sleeve system. Several nights spent in the tent seem to indicate a dry, well-ventilated interior. Hard core snow and rain resistence was not tested on this trip but stake out provisions are provided for better tent strength. A very useful mesh gear loft is included along with four interior pockets (albeit they are not tightly sewn. Many parts of the Recluse are seam sealed but the bottom tent seam (catendary sewn) should be sealed by the user. The vestibules are well-executed and provide an incredible amount of dry gear storage area. The chosen light Mossy Green and light grey colors are excellent are provide more subdued camping and excellent, bright light filtration inside. But remember this is a sub-0 tent so you will give up a few things in that choice. Close inspection of the “Recluse” tent model will reveal it to be a medium quality tent with compromises made to achieve that …

This is my Wenzel Starlite 3- season 1 man backpaking tent. It is made of 1.9 oz uerethane coated 600mm polyester. Which makes it very light weight. It features a zippered entrance with no-see-um mesh screen and a small no-see–um mesh screen at the foot for added ventalation. I have used this tent several times while backpacking and have been pleased so far. This is more of a begginer or low-budget backpackers tent. I found it on Amazon last year for about .00.
