      Comments about Kelty Parthenon 6 - 6 Person Tent:

      Just used this tent for a 8 day outing in Yellowstone during early September.
      No snow but enough rain to know it kept dry and quieter inside than other tents I've used.
      Set up is straightforward though just a bit more complicated than smaller tents and takes about 15 minutes with 2 people, a little bit more if just one person.
      We easily fit 3 twin size air mattresses and personal gear inside, with room to spare.

      I'd definitely recommend.

      Comments about Kelty Parthenon 6 - 6 Person Tent:

      I've only used the tent once for a 3 night trip. Only light rain and mod wind. Wasn't able to really stake out fully due to a lack of space in camp area but it still worked well. Very high quality pole system, great coverage by the rainfly, good angle on walls to use cots. It was smaller in depth than I had imagined but still a good compromise between space to sleep and the area needed to set it up. Frequently when camping in the mountains finding a level space between trees can be a challenge when a tent is huge. Too small of tent can be too cramped. I felt this is a good compromise and I expect that it will handle most weather situations well. I have owned quality tents from REI, Walrus, Kelty in the past and feel this is a well made tent. I also bought the under tent tarp for this and it also is well made.

      • Q:

        Is there a back window for front to back airflow on the Parthenon 6?

          A:

          When the fly is in place, the cover over the front and back door is capable of being unzipped to provide for cross ventilation from front to back. With the fly removed, the is a large area of mesh to allow very good ventilation.
