Consistently rated as one of the top ultralight backpacking tents. This is a 2014 version with the one piece storm door. Cuben fiber floor not included. This tent requires a 48" trekking pole or other pole as well as 6-8 stakes to setup,which are not included. Perfect condition except for small netting repair performed by the previous owner. See picture, repair does not affect function of the tent in any way. First picture is from the web, Forgot to include a storm door down picture when I had it set up, sorry. The remaining ones are the tent you will receive. The last picture shows the repair area. It looks more noticeable than it actually is in person due to the way the light reflected off of it.

Damage shown was done when the previous owner left food in his tent and a rodent chewed the holes in it. Description also calls out a pair of storm doors, this tent has a single full length storm door. From the Zpacks website: (go here: http://www.zpacks.com/shelter/hexamid.shtml and the highlighted text below are links to items)Description:
The Hexamid Solo is a six sided pyramid style tent for an average size solo hiker. It has fully enclosed screen, a detachable bathtub floor for versatility, and storm doors for 360° rain protection. Features:
Sets up with just one trekking pole or walking stick adjusted to around 48 inches (122 cm), and a minimum of six stakes. Eight stakes are recommended. Set up are available. Set up takes less than 2 minutes, watch the 2015 ! Ample space for one average size person plus gear. The tent is long enough for an average size person to fully stretch out their arms and legs, and tall enough to sit upright. A 6 foot (1.83 m) tall person would have about 17.5" (45 cm) of vertical height at the ends of their head and feet when laying down.
A pair of storm doors protect the front of the tent from rain spray. The doors overlap in front, you never have to worry about a broken zipper. They clip down to the front center guy line, or roll up out of the way. Leave one or both doors open for air flow when the weather allows it. You can also use the doors for vestibule space.
Great ventilation, and a great view through the large screen entryway. 6" (15 cm) of screen around the perimeter allows air flow. The bathtub floor is set back from the screen walls. You can leave both storm doors open in the rain for air flow, unless spray is blowing directly at the front of the tent.Our Hexamid tents are unique in that they have a fully enclosed screen floor which keeps 100% of insects, spiders, ticks, etc out!You will need a separate waterproof bathtub floor on the inside, on top of the screen, just like sleeping under a tarp. Keeping it separate from the tent offers the following advantages:Our works great, but alternatively you can use a to double as rain gear, a , or inexpensive material like to save on cost.On nice nights you can take your separate floor out and sleep under the stars or on the ground under a shelter.If rain is blowing hard at one side of the tent, you can fold or shift your floor away from any spray. Rain spray or condensation runs harmlessly out the screen floor.You can set your wet shoes, wet pack, and clothes on the screen, while keeping your bathtub floor dry.You can take out your bathtub floor to dry the tent off faster. If the tent is wet you can pack your dry floor separate.Normally the floor stays clipped in place and packs up with the tent. You don't ever have to take it out except when you want to!
Each inside corner of the tent has a loop and clip for attaching your bathtub floor. The peak also has a loop on the inside for hanging a flashlight or stuff sack.
All of our tents do pretty well in the wind. The material can handle high wind loads. As long as your stakes stay in the ground (use rocks if available) your tent will stay standing. Cuben Fiber is not a particularly noisy fabric, however almost any tent will make a little noise in the wind. Ear plugs are not a bad idea for windy nights.
Cuben Fiber is semi-transparent. In bright sunlight you can see a fuzzy silhouette of a person sitting inside the tent. You cannot see any details and it has a suitable amount of privacy for changing clothes etc. In lower light (such as in the evening or at night) you cannot see through at all. We also have thicker, darker material available as an upgrade below.One nice thing about Cuben Fiber is you can also see the outlines of trees and your surroundings for a more connected outdoor experience.The expected life span of this shelter is at least one full 2500+ mile thru hike, or many years of casual use with some care.
All ZPacks gear has a one year warranty against defects in materials or workmanship. Returns or exchanges are welcome.

Construction:
Our tents are made from .51 oz/sqyd (17.4 g/m²) Cuben Fiber material. Cuben Fiber has several advantages over other materials:
Cuben Fiber has a very high strength to weight ratio. The material can handle high wind force and does not tear easily.Cuben Fiber is waterproof.Cuben Fiber is made from Dyneema threads which do not stretch. The tent stays taut all night. Nylon material by comparison can stretch and sag, especially if it gets wet.Tape sticks well to it. Any damage can easily be fixed in the field with our .The seams are stitched and then taped taped water tight. The tie outs have bonded reinforcements for high strength. No seam sealing necessary!
This tent has fully enclosed .7 oz/sqyd (24 g/m²) insect screen. The holes in this screen are super tiny, even the smallest insects cannot get through. Our tent screen is about 30% lighter than comparable Noseeum screen with no noticeable decrease in durability. The screen floor holds up surprisingly well. As long as you are a little careful to move pointy things from your tent site you are unlikely to get any damage. If it did get a puncture it would be under your solid bathtub floor where it wouldn't affect the performance of the tent.
Bright Yellow 1.25 mm Spectra Z-Line cord is included for guy lines (uncut). This cord is very strong, tangle resistant, and doesn't stretch so it gives you a tight pitch. Yellow is easy to see day or night. We recommend fixed length guy lines for the easiest set up with no knots or adjustment necessary.
