Marmot Tungsten 3P stands out for its full-coverage rainfly in a category where most tents leave sidewall gaps. We researched the weather difference this makes in high wind and rain.
Who it's for
Buy this if: 2-3 person camping groups who camp in varied weather and want reliable rain protection.
Skip this if: Ultralight backpackers — at 6 lbs 12 oz this is mid-weight for a 3-person.
In practice
Rainfly to Ground
Most tent rainflies stop 6-12 inches above the ground, leaving a gap that allows wind-blown rain to soak gear in vestibules and wet the tent base. The Tungsten's extended rainfly eliminates this gap, which is what keeps the vestibule interior dry when the rain comes in sideways.
