The Mesa Tent by Black Diamond is their new double wall tent that provides the ultimate in usable space and a cool 360 degree view.  If you have ever been stuck in a tent for days waiting out weather to pass you really want a tent that can give you an open, free feeling.  The Mesa is designed to be freestanding, with a mesh canopy for excellent ventilation and a perimeter of nylon ripstop along the bottom for campground privacy.  The Mesa is a two person tent that is easy to pitch with hook and tension external clips and a pole hub system that when coupled with variable diameter poles, steepens the tent walls for incredible interior space and provides excellent stability for high winds.

Two full size doors are available so you don't wake up your tent mate when nature calls and interior organizer pockets keep your headlamp, pen and other important items off the tent floor.  When the seam taped PU/Silicone fly is added you get two vestibules and incredible waterproof storm protection.

Great tent, comfortable, easy to set up!

"I had the difficult task of finding a comfortable and light tent that fit my 6'2" body. There appears to be a lot of great tents out there, however, they don't fit people over 6 feet. Well, I can say that this tent works very well for me. There is plenty of room for me along with my gear. It serves well as a one person+gear tent but would work fine for 2 people (although maybe a little tight). The tent is extrem..." Read Full Review »

Disappointed with spec dimensions

"I bought this tent because at the stated 92" length it was the longest, fairly lightweight 2 person tent I could find (at an affordable sale price of [$]). Well, there is no way on earth you can stretch the floor any farther than 90" and the only way the peak height is 44" would be if you were using it with fly only (otherwise it's more like 40"). I don't get why, when people are getting taller, tent lengths see..." Read Full Review »

"The tent is not as sized above. The diagram states that it is 58" wide front and back. It is not. If it was, it would be an amazing tent at 5 lbs 2 oz! Instead the tent is 58" (generously, more like 56") in front and only 44" in the rear. (Black Diamond website confirms this with a correct diagram.) …"  Read Full Review »

Great Tent!!!

"This tent is really amazing. With the one-pole hub design, takes less than a minute to set this tent up! Packs pretty light and is the most user friendly tent I have owned. Took this tent on a 5-day trip to Zion NP and it was excellent through several days of thunder storms and heavy rain and win …"  Read Full Review »
