WindQuester Horizon Lite 2 Pro Tent – Unboxing & First Look

BestHike editor Rick McCharles

Without reading any instructions — or watching any videos — I set up the NEW freestanding Horizon Lite 2 Pro. 😀

It was easy.

Happy Camper

I like the bright Seafoam Blue colours.

DAC FeatherLite™ NFL poles, YKK zippers, DAC J-stakes, Dyneema® core guylines, a stuff sack, and repair kit.

WindQuester has asked me to do some testing in the real world on my upcoming hiking trip to the Balkans, Dolomites, and beyond.

It weighs almost 3 pounds (1.33 kg). My 1-person Hubba weighs about 2 pounds, by comparison. But many solo bikepackers (like Ryan Van Duzer) carry a 2 person tent in order to get all of their gear out of sight at night. Worth the extra weight for more space.

The WindQuester pole is shorter than the Hubba. Nice as I bring all my gear on to planes as carry on.

Is it good in the wind? See for yourself.
