Photo #3.

I'm backing off a bit shooting the last photo in the sequence. I gathered all the loose gear and chucked it into my tent. The wind was not as strong as I had expected, but enough to blow away some lighter gear (gloves and stuff sacks) which had been outside other tents. Remember; we're almost a km away from the bottom of the face.




One night a much larger avalanche hit. I thought the wind would rip my tent to pieces, but it stood strong.

you just made a great ad for this tent. I never heard of this brand. I guess I will invest in an another tent to test it out.

I like Integral Designs. When I first saw the model I was in doubt. It looked a bit cheap and it didn't convince me it could take really tough conditions. It did and I have now used it for many years in very rough surroundings.

I tried several brands of tents: Sierra designs, Black Diamond, REI, MSR - and always had some issues. Never liked 4 season tents b/c of its weight. So, I am excited about trying out Integral Designs. I guess I am a gear junkie.
