Sierra Designs Lightning XT 3 3-Season Backpacking Tent

Product Highlights

New for 2009! The freestanding Sierra Designs Lightning XT 3 is a roomy, lightweight backpacking tent. Collectively, the Lightning XT 3’s innovative Tunnel Dome design, dual doors and twin vestibules help to maximize livability.

The Lightning XT 3 has 42 sq. ft. of interior space. A large front vestibule offers 15.5 sq ft of exterior shelter while a rear vestibule provides an additional 8 sq ft! Sewn-in interior pockets help you free up floor space.

DAC Featherlite NSL aluminum poles grant the Lightning XT 3 lightweight freestanding support and stability. A unique Swivel Hub design increases the verticality of the Lightning XT 3’s sidewalls and, as a result, improves the feeling of livability within the tent. Sturdy, streamlined Ultralight Clips help to keep trail weight to a minimum. Reflective guy lines help to further secure the Lightning XT 3 and provide visibility when returning to your tent after dark.

The Lightning XT 3’s SuperSeal Floor has a raised, taped perimeter that maintains a tight pitch and guarantees waterproof protection. Environmentally-friendly PVC-free seam tape protects the interior of the Lightning XT 3 from moisture and precipitation. A custom-fit footprint (sold separately) is available to further protect the floor of your Lightning XT 3 from mud, ground water and sharp objects such as rocks and pine needles.
