Ideal for backpackers, the Kelty Trail Ridge 3 tent delivers reliable 3-season performance at a budget-friendly price. The Trail Ridge 3 offers easy set-up, room for three and provides excellent ventilation in hot and humid conditions.
Three DAC Press-fit aluminum poles give the Trail Ridge 3 a sturdy frame and color-coded clip construction makes it easy to identify which pole goes where. The freestanding design allows you to pitch the Trail Ridge 3 and then move it around your campsite to find the optimum position, eliminating an uncomfortable night's sleep over an exposed root or rock. Stakes are included to secure the tent in place.
The Trail Ridge 3 provides 44 square feet of interior space and almost 4 feet of overhead peak height. Internal storage pockets and an included gear loft provide places to stow gear and maximize available floor space. Two 9 square foot vestibules offer a total of 18 square feet of additional exterior storage space for wet or muddy shoes and gear.
A full mesh canopy combines with venting in the rainfly to provide great airflow and prevent condensation build-up on the interior of the Trail Ridge 3. The PU-coated polyester-taffeta rainfly covers the whole tent and keeps the interior of the tent dry during wet weather. Kelty's patented ArcEdge construction lifts the taped, floor seams up off the ground, eliminating potential for leaks. An optional footprint (sold separately) can further protect the Kelty Trail Ridge 3 against ground water, roots and rocks.

Likes: This tent is great! It is extremely roomy, and has great ventilation. I wanted this for a summer tent so that air could flow freely on hot summer nights. For this purpose it is perfect. I generally understand a 3 person tent to house 2 people, which is true of this tent too. Unless you are 3 very small people, plan to put 2 people in here.
Dislikes: It is a little on the heavy side. My 2 person tent is a solid 2.5 pounds lighter, which I miss.The rain fly is deceiving. From the picture it looks like the rain fly comes all the way to the ground. This is nearly true, but not completely true. I live in a rainforest, so the rain fly is crucial. Also, you have to stake the rain fly in 8 places to keep it from laying against the tent thus letting water in. They provide said stakes, so this is intentional and makes the tent more sturdy during tough storms. It is, however, a pain in the rump. Overall I love this tent and am happy to have it!
Strong, ultra-reflective cord for guying out your tent.

A great entry-level alternative to the low-end tents found at many big box retailers, the economical Kelty Acadia 2 can serve as a basic camping tent for two people or a durable backpacking tent for first-timers.
Zoomify would go here, or a larger image... This is a temporary placeholder... The settup of this may change depending on whether we are in fact using Zoomify.
Rotate SWF would go here... Greg will reconfigure this after we have an actual example. This is just a place holder.
