The wonderful Banshee...

So long as your not being fully antisocial and hitting the hills alone there is only one realistic option for a tent.  The Vango Banshee is possibly the greatest solution to lightweight 3 season 'social expeditioning' right now!

Strong, well designed, spectacularly waterproof and easily shareable between several members of a party, the Banshee is great.  It's lightweight and divides well which means you carry even less per person than taking a tarp each.

So this tent, with 5000mm hydrostatic head waterproofing, space, double skin and 2 entrances is great for purpose, lightweight, and it's the best price you could possibly think of.  At £90 for the 200 (2 man) it's spectacular and worth buying, even if you have a tent.  But if you keep an eye on shops like Millets at the end of the summer season you can pick one up for £70.

I'm sorry, what?  Did you say...

Yes I did - £70!!!!!

A quick search found it in Blacks for £88 (vango in blacks) which is still a bargain!  Good for Christmas then!
