Wan-Ifra and Beyond!

Here's just a few shots I snapped using my camera phone in route to Hyderabad, India for the 2009 Wan-Ifra conference. Check out http://www.ifra.net/blogs/wan-congress-2009 for more information on the event.

Here is a glimpse of the swiss alps from everest altitude.

2-man 3-season tents

I'm currently in the market for a new 2-3 man, 3 season tent. I'm looking at the Big Agnes Emerald Mountain sl2. The added vestibule looks great for sketchy weather cooking. I'm also looking into the MSR Hubba Hubba. If anyone has any advice, please feel free to post. Also, if anyone knows of any tents with large vestibules let me know. Don't suggest hillebergs as they are out of my price range. Pref. between $200-$500
