Black Diamond Stormtrack 4 Season Tent
By Editor | March 14, 2011
Black Diamond is a brand that exudes performance and has a loyal following of gear heads. Take this as an example of performance, the Stormtrack 4-season tent can take a pounding from 50-mph winds daily, and it is only a hubbed 3-pole design with double wall…not bad at all.
Tent design from Black Diamond has innovated over the years, and 4-season tents used to have a comforting 6-pole lattice and a heavier gauge of nylon, however now a days everything has to be made lighter and Black Diamond has achieved that with the Stormtrack 4 season tent.
Black Diamond is a leader in fast-and-light single-wall Alpinist shelters and the 7lb Stormtrack certainly can bend and contort every direction under the force of brutal nighttime gusts without worrying its occupants. While its weight is not super lightweight for two-man tent, it is worth it for a shelter that can withstand the harshest environments, if you plan to go there.
Price: $500
