A few months ago I spent some time in CO and it was in 30’s at night. I just got done w/ 10 days here in Northern Mi and it was in the mid to low 20’s at night.
I have a Tepui Ayre w/ a anti-condensation mat.
In the morning there would be frost under the mat on the floor of the Tepui. If I folded up to move locations, melted frost would drip down onto the folded mattress.
I’d sleep w/ roof screens fully open below rainfly. Side screens 1/2 open and each end 1/2 open.
the underside of the rain fly would be frosted over in the am. Creating further moisture issues if I had to fold the tent up to move sites.
Curious if those who have had both soft and hard shell tents can comment on the condensation/frost build up in colder temps - is it better or worse for hard shell? Also - any condensation differences between a fully pop-up hard shell like a Tepui HyBox and a clam style like a Roofnest Sparrow.
