Product Highlights

Updated for 2006! The Kelty Trail Dome 6 is a 6-person family camping tent featuring 2 doors, quality DAC DA17 aluminum poles, and durable easy-to-pitch clip/sleeve construction.

The DAC DA17 poles found on the Trail Dome 6 are lighter, stronger and longer lasting than fiberglass poles. Aluminum poles are more durable to handle heavy wind and snow loads. Unlike fiberglass, aluminum does not become brittle in cold weather.

To attach the poles to the tent body, the Kelty Trail Dome 6 uses a hybrid clip/sleeve construction combining the convenience of clips with the durability of sleeves at the critical top attachment points.

The Trail Dome 6 is freestanding, so you can pitch the tent, then move it around on your camp site to find the optimum position (this helps eliminate someone having to sleep on top of a root or sharp rock).

With Kelty's ArcEdge construction, the floor seams are lifted up off the ground to prevent water seepage around the floor/wall seams. Kelty's water tight wall technology uses a shingled seam approach on the walls and Kelty has also installed flaps over the exposed windows and doors to prevent leakage at the zippers even in high wind.

Likes: Easy to set up for a large family tent. Good zippers and solid construction.

Dislikes: The poles are aluminum (a plus) but they bend if not set up carefully. The rain fly does not completely cover the doors. I haven't used it in a heavy downpour yet, but it may leak with a strong cross wind rain.

Likes: This tent is great for family camping. This tent replaced our 4 person REI tent, which we loved but got too cramped with the growing family. My husband is able to stand up in the middle of the tent no problems. Since we camp with Cub Scouts a few times a year we wanted a tent that our 2nd grader & myself could put together without my husbands help (he is normally off helping the other families that never camp put up their tents). The two of us could get the tent up in under 10 minutes. It is very roomy inside, we fit a queen and twin air mattress with room to still have our gear at the foot of the air mattresses. Once the tent was staked down and we added the rain fly it was very secure.

Dislikes: My only complaint is I can not get the tent back into the bag it came with. But I have never had luck with that camping. We purchased a plastic bin that holds our tent & air mattresses so that is what we pull out of the car and store all our stuff in. If you are good at oragami you can probably get your tent back in the bag, but other than that I am super happy with the purchase.

Likes: perfect size for our needs. Fit four boys for short trips and two with plenty of room for gear on long trips. love the feature of two doors. this is a huge plus for Scout camping since many of the camps require two doors in black bear country. Easy set up and great ventilation.

Dislikes: inability to cover the mesh above the doors in windy cooler weather.

Likes: Wow! Okay, I haven't been camping in 15 years, but tents have gotten really tall. My 6'1" SO can stand up in this one. We haven't actually slept in it yet, but set up is pretty straight forward, SO and 2-year old had no problems. If it's windy, you'll need two people (probably someone older than 2). Feels spacious and appears to be well sealed.

Dislikes: Nothing, so far
