I have both this tent (Scenic Pass 3XT) and the Apex 2XT. Each are excellent, 3 season tents. I have been a fan of Eureka tents since I started in Boy Scouts in 1979. The Scenic Pass is a lighter weight compared to the Apex series. The poles are smaller and weigh less but I have had no issues with strength. Having been caught in multiple rain showers in the Scenic Pass, the poles have held up well. I did apply seam sealer before using this for the first time. I never buy a tent that needs more than 2 poles to put it up. This tent is less than 5 mins to put up and can be done by 1 person. Each side of this tent has zippered access as well as a vestibule area to store gear. 3 people in this tent with gear inside the tent will not be fun. Utilizing the two vestibules for gear storage will make 3 people in this tent bearable

This tent is pretty good. It is lightweight, so it is good for backpacking. It seems to pretty well constructed. Has ample storage space. My GF and I use it as two-person tent with gear and it is pretty good.PROS:-Lightweight-well constructed-doesn't leak-good tent for 2 people plus gear backpackingCONS:-a little short for tall people-condensation forms on insides where the rainfly doesnt cover. Can be quite a bit of condensation. Have been thinking about how to extend to rainfly to solve this problem. Maybe a tarp.

Another great Eureka tent, this one is advertised for 3 people.Here are the most notable features:Double doors and vestibules - a huge advantage when three people are expected to be crawling over each others' business to get in or out of the tent, especially if you are in the center.Color coded straps for low viz and quick setup.Ultra lightweight poles (slightly shorter) provides greater "packability" and the setup is very fast. The tent snaps into place using tension clips (no more sliding the poles thru channels). Just be careful not to step on the pole! Also be careful not to damage the clips!Full rainfly ensures almost absolute dry interior. The only place water can possibly seep in is if you have heavy rain PLUS driving winds, then you **MAY** get a little water if it's driven in under the fly and into the vent windows, but still, not likely.It has a full gear shelf in the top center of the tent, made of the same mesh material as the door screens, "no see um" mesh. It can hold his n her wallets, keys, 2 cell phones, and a tactical aluminum flashlight, maybe 8-10 lbs easily.There are little pockets located in 2 places behind the zipper doors, you can stow either the door screens in them, or use them for other cargo.While the tent CAN fit 3 people side to side, it leaves almost no space for gear, unless you keep it in the vestibule with the fire ants. No, we used this tent for 2, and it was more than enough space, we had 2 backpacks each plus sleeping bags, air mattresses, and still had room to lay out some clothes and our shoes to dry. Very roomy, cool during the day, and offers enough protection in 3 seasons.Seems durable for what it is, a LIGHTWEIGHT backpacking tent!
