Do you love to go camping but hate lugging around cumbersome tents that are difficult to construct and hard to pack away efficiently?

If you are searching for a lightweight tent that can easily clip onto a bicycle rack, kayak or backpack, the Clip Flashlight may just be your answer. The Clip Flashlight, an immensely popular tent that was created by Sierra Designs, was recently updated in 2005 with a more lightweight silicone fly material, as well as Featherlite poles, which resulted in knocking another 4 ounces off of the total weight.

Weighing in at a mere 4 ½ pounds, the Clip Flashlight appears to be the most portable tent available in today’s market. It boasts 32 square feet of space, with an added 6 square feet afforded by the vestibule. Its dimensions are as follows; 89 inches long, 58 inches wide across the front, and 43 inches tall.

While this may seem small for a tent rated for two people, if you’re not storing your equipment inside the tent, and neither of you is on the large side, there is plenty of room for two people who don’t mind sleeping real close to one another!

If you are a solo camper, the tent proves to be more than adequate.

It features Tent Guard with UltraFresh, Cam-Loc, Swift Clips, lightweight fly material, reflective guy-outs and zipper pulls, color coded webbing, DAC Featherlite poles, locking pole tips, optic white material, double grommets, gear pockets and is Fast Pack Footprint compatible.

Ventilation is not a problem with this tent, as it features 360 degrees of mesh. You won’t have to worry about catching a summer breeze when you’re sleeping in the Clip Flashlight! Rain won’t pose a problem either, as the Clip Flashlight’s vestibule will keep all of your gear dry during those summer storms.

This model of tent has received numerous favorable reviews and is a favorite among solo campers, and those who simply like to travel lightly. Cyclists have been raving about the portability of the Clip Flashlight, and appreciate that setup of the tent is so easy.

If you have been settling for one of those big, clumsy, hard to erect tents, you owe it to yourself to invest in a Clip Flashlight. They are economically priced, and can be used during three of the four seasons. The Clip Flashlight can be found at major sporting goods stores, or can be purchased through a multitude of licensed, online retailers.

It’s offered in olive and white, and accessories are available for additional purchase. Before you set out on your next camping adventure, make sure you have a Clip Flashlight; you’ll never use any other lightweight tent again!
