We're going skiing tomorrow on a nearby track! It has a lean-to shelter halfway and we want to check if there's any firewood left. It will be a chilly 0 degrees Fahrenheit in the morning, but it's going to be a sunny day and the temperature should rise slightly.
Here's a trivia question for ya "Cool Hand Luke". How many hard boiled eggs did Cool Hand Luke manage to get down? Other than that I'm practicing with my new found gills that have grown in recently from all the rain we're getting. Good video man!
Yes I agree Luke.... they really need to change the colours, and more importantly extend the the rear of the fly sheet to give the back end more protection...
I'm going to comment on the color thing to hopefully clear that up. I have a very close friend who works for one of the big companies that manufactures 4 season tents. He himself actual works on tent design. The reason for the color choices is most companies have on 4 season tents is they are made to be used on mountains and expeditions. There they want to have bright colors to help identify the tent in snowy conditions or God forbid an avalanche. Given that most companies that sell true 4 season tents sell 75% + to mountaineers and the like, they take the feedback from these clients who want bright colors to help keep them safe. With that said, there are a few companies that make TRUE 4 season tents in a variety of colors. But most will have yellows and oranges to help be seen in snowy conditions.
I can see you point and I must agree with you. On the other hand it stops good 4 season tents from being bought from folks who need a little more earthy color for their Winter activities' .
Yes the colors are a safety feature and as a former military SRT member, yes absolutely helps us in the helicopter see you in a see of white, brown, and green. However there is a huge community that doesn’t want to be seen under any circumstances. It’s true as Americans we haven’t had a war on our mainland since 1865 but that doesn’t mean it will always stay that way. So I myself go between both, stealth and fun camping as I call it.
I prefer the brighter colors myself but that's prolly cuz after years of military service I got tired of O.D. green. Plus if you're in a survival situation you're more likely to be spotted with the bright color which is also why they use brighter colors in alpine conditions where climbers/hikers are prone to avalanches. Plus after a night of boozing it up the tent is easier to find at the campground!!! Lol
And it's like he was just bursting to say it! I laughed out loud and came down here to comment but thank the technicolour lord your's is the first comment. As an Australian who only sees real weather on holidays, this is now right at the top of my list of 4 season tents I might actually buy. And yeah, in 2023 it's randomly also a thumbs up to the country of Ukraine.
I think you're right about the colors. There's a huge population who won't (not in a million years) buy those colors... survivalists, prepers, SHTF and the like. Their whole mission is stealth. ❤🌅🌵
When I was in the Air Force I was a SRT operator, so on one level you’re correct, as it does help to find you. However that said, there are situations where you don’t want to be seen. Inexperienced or newbie’s should use brighter colors probably.
I disagree about the color scheme. I use this tent style mostly in rugged weather above timeberline. There is nothing more depressing than spending days weathered in a tent of "earthtones". It feels like your in a dark, dreary coffin. I want my tent to stick out and add some color to a very grey world which I spend weeks in during the fall. Great review though, thank you.
Yes, I would like to see Seirra have different colors for their tents. It use to be that you wanted to blend in to the environment and not stand out, also the rear fly needs to be larger.
The color is for ski touring or mountaineering (especially on glaciers). Makes it easier to spot your tent in clouds, fog, blowing snow, etc. I've always had a soft spot for Sierra Designs stuff, especially their tents. My wife and I rented a 3 person/3 season once, and experienced what seemed like hurricane force winds in a campground. We were the last ones standing. Thanks for all the videos. You have a huge reservoir of knowledge
I had a Sierra Designs Lookout CD I bought in the 90s. It served me tremendously well, and had those same colors. Back then those colors were kind of the norm. I don't think stealth camping had even been thought of. I found the yellow a very comforting color inside the tent during the day.
As a recreational user... not the colors I would like... however on the side of a mountain in a blowing snow storm.. yes please. It will stand out much better I would think. Great review!
I think the color choice is great for some people, but I agree with you. I prefer natural colors, specifically camouflage patterns. I like hiding my stuff from people for my own safety and to prevent theft. Also so I don't have to deal with people. I understand that bright colors can make the tent easy for you to find, but that issue can be addressed with a brightly colored flag or piece of material. I think it would be great if they offered a fly with a camo on one side and a vibrant color on the other. That way you can choose to hide or be easy to find.
luke I am sooooooooo happy som1 finally did a tent review & mentioned the problem with some companies who only use crazy colors. every1 has their own taste but im just like you. coy. brown. ranger green these colors are what I look for when I buy... thx for the review take care
I think the tent is a good deal. I have a couple of there products that have been good. I am a hunter and hiker that does it mostly to fish mountain streams. I also have represented a sportsman group. Many companies do not want to be involved in blood sports in this segment. Having a green tent may actually hurt their business. We did a lot of conservation projects for habitat and all the outdoor companies would help in that regard. But the blood sports was a line most stayed on one side of. You never hear them talk about it. But it is an important consideration for most of them.
Good review, This tent is made for the mountaineering market, thats the reason for the bright colors. Better contrast for finding your tent in a storm when you return to your tent after a summit, or a rescue situation.
I agree with you on the colors cause if you want to stealth camp you were out of luck in that color also it be nice if that back and basically came down to make like a mini vestibule it would still get airflow but it would protect those zippers or make the zippers waterproof
I always assumed the bright colors on 4-season/mountaineering tents were for safety. Could they offer two color options, sure. If you're on the top of a mountain in an emergency situation, I'd want a bright tent. Not to mention the bright color helps illuminate the interior.
It doesn’t have to be an either or decision. For the mountaineers and alpinists the bright colors are awesome. But adding a stealth color combo would open up a whole new market for them.
Thanks again for another honest review Luke, yes I would also like to see the tent in darker colors I'm also not one to use bright colors, maybe maroon, OD agree coyote tan forest green ect.. Thanks again, God bless you and your Family always and forever.🇺🇸
Well........it would be nice to see this in earth tones, just sayin'. I am impressed with the size and construction. The price takes it out of my reach a bit, but I'm getting a little old to be doing 4 season stuff anyway........I'm more of a spring/fall camper now (I really like A/C when it's hot lol) but even then, if I camped more this would be a nice nice option. Great and thorough review, Luke. Keep doing what yer doing.
The colors are bright for a reason. They are designed to be easily visible in a snow storm. Lets say you are coming down from a mountain and searching for your tent in a snow storm.
Great review, excellent presentation. I agree with the colors, however, I work with SAR here in Canada and would like to see a blaze orange option as well, for obvious reasons. I do agree though that earth tones would bring in a lot of prospective buyers.
I prefer the darker colours mainly for lack of bright glare when inside the tent during daytime in direct sun. Give me the earth tones any day over the bright ones.
I understand that bright colors are good to have if you're mountaineering and need to be found in emergencies but not everyone wants that. I specifically bought a earth tone tent 👍
Great review. I couldn't tell from the video is there a screen on the small vent also? I have wondered why more 4 season tents aren't better ventilated so that they are more useful in the warmer months. For what they typically seem to cost I think that being better ventilated might sell some more tents to frequent but budget conscious users who would be willing to spend more on a superior tent if they only had to buy one. Throw in an actual packable weight and that is awesome! If not mountaineering more natural/muted colors would be good. How low can you get the weight on that thing Luke?
Definitely can't take that tent stealth camping. Ever since i came across your review on the snugpack Ionosphere, i purchased it and love not sticking out like a sore thumb/tella tubby;)
Great review, thanks, but I like the colors they use. Makes for great camp pix IMO and night time camp pix with a light inside. I agree that the fly should extend more over the back window.
Colors are a little loud but overall This looks like a Homerun for Sierra Designs, I have 2 questions Luke, Would you recommend this for extended stays (Long Term Base Camp?) And is there a Footprint available for the Vestibule? Great review my friend.
Luke nice review. LOL about teletubby playground. So tell me Luke which teletubby is your favorite? LOL ouch! Ducks for cover as Luke starts chucking large pine cones at him. I do agree , I'm in the same camp on colors. I prefer the earth tones as well. Kinda makes me think about the usmc combat tent. Which is something I've been looking for. And everything I've heard or read about it. Seems like a good 4 season choice.
Great video Kuke. Keep up the good work. Couldn't agree with you More on that topic. Never used the tent but after watching your video. I'm sold. COME ON Sierra give some color options. Teletubbie playground LMFAO 👍👍👍👍
I like the color, as I like waking up to a brighter tent. But yeah, it's bright. I call it my Minion tent. I've taken it backpacking twice, and am surprised at how light it is. @sierradesigns maybe a rain fly in forest green?
Can you do a video on your plastic you put under your tents? I'm just curious what you use and also your strategy for the size of your footprint? Some people say none of it should be seen so it doesn't collect rain and you obviously like yours oversized. Thanks!
When I'm backcountry hunting I like a bright tent so other hunters don't accidentally set up 100yards away. Its kinda lame to get back to camp and find out that another group is set up next door.
Thanks Luke Is this tent going to reappear on your channel? Hard to believe manufacture did not respond to the color options immediately and the rear fly length As similar comments are all over the forums- Yes we get the whole mountain rescue reference or brand specific color but.... Color option And their 3 person option with the two doors and the option to add a second vestibule for a base camp is pretty interesting to think about and mitigates the rear zipper issue-
Hi the outdoor gear review. My name is John from Canada and I would like to have your thoughts on the gear top 4-Person 4 Season tent, and if you could do a video on it. Ps, I enjoy watching your videos and thank you so much. Keep up the good work.
I agree to the comments that bright color is for safety purpose. However, can we get one normal color tent out of every ten bright color tent, at least?? BUT NO !! NOT every one is going on dangerous mountain hikes(btw you should factor in the risk, if you screw up in dangerous situation, that yellow tent probably won't help much). Most people camp in winter probably doing it in a SAFE camp ground or in a remote country side and a bright orange or red tent just look silly.
Multicam, Kryptek, and Mossy Oak camouflage variations would be nice, but at a minimum Olive Drab, or some green color. Maybe it is designed to stand out in the snow, in case of rescue?
The 3 person version of this tent has dual vestibules and does not have the issue about rain coming in from the back. Costs $100 more and weighs about 1lb more.
I don't own a four season tent. I live in Texas and it just doesn't cold enough to merit the expensive purchase. If I were in the market for a 4 season tent, that small fly on the rear would cause me not to purchase this tent. I understand that this is a Alpine/Mountaineering tent thus the bright colors for safety but very few purchasers will use a tent in that role. Earth tones should be a option. Nice review thanks.
Hate to disagree but I personally love that color scheme... to me, if the sh#t hits the fan, you will be easily located with the bright colors!!! It is a 4 season tent.... meant for harsh conditions... can't wait to see the real world test... the footage so far looks crazy!!!! 👍
Agree about these ugly loud colors...did you ever use and video the olive drab Snugpack 4 season tent you reviewed a couple of years ago? You had mentioned that it could be left hooked together to make subsequent set ups quicker. How much time did you end up shaving off by doing that?
Hello buddy. Your so right. Lovely looking tent. Easy to use the vastly is good. See that in sandy or flat earth would be awesome 😂. Thanks for sharing mate an ya time as always. ATVB
I've noticed in recent videos you have started to refer to yourself as cool hand Luke. Can we expect a future video of you eating 50 hard boiled eggs? I feel like this is a a requirement to keep such a legendary designation. -Tony
Ok... Totally off topic... but did you get your ear pierced???? Left ear??? Just say NO to BETS Luke... lol!!!! Great review!!! Keep up the great work!!
I understand about the colors. Like my little Eureka Solitaire, i really like it but that bright color is awful. I wish this also was available in natural colors, a bit of a deal breaker for me.
Yellow and blue is much better than bright orange or green. I would much rather have darker colors in earth-tone for sure. We are supposed to blend in to the environment not stick out. Unless you are on the side of a mountain heading to K2 or something. you need to be seen in the snow. Most of us, want to blend in...
I'm just going to thumbs up all your vids without even watching em all the way through .how does UA-cam work? Does your channel grow from thums up? Comments? I just want your channel to do good
So folks, the weekend is upon us once again! Did you know that I'm gearing up for the next overnight adventure?
What are you all getting into?
- Luke
We're going skiing tomorrow on a nearby track! It has a lean-to shelter halfway and we want to check if there's any firewood left. It will be a chilly 0 degrees Fahrenheit in the morning, but it's going to be a sunny day and the temperature should rise slightly.

Going on a 3day 2 nighter next weekend in the davey Crockett national forest
Im thinking scuba gear lol its been raining here in Arkansas for a week now and due at least 3 more days if i heard right.

L Long I sort of agree, however, this tent maybe ok for 4 season camping but what it isn’t is a MOUNTAIN tent IMO of course!
I can see you point and I must agree with you. On the other hand it stops good 4 season tents from being bought from folks who need a little more earthy color for their Winter activities' .

"Not everyone wants to have a tent that looks like a Teletubby playground." That's probably my favorite line I've ever heard Luke say! lmao

Agreed, earth tone colors are a must. And yes a little more fly coverage on the backside. Great review as always
A year ago I complained about a shortage of gear review, even though there was allot already, but now it's allot more...this channel is 10 outta 10
I think 4 season tents should be bright colors just for an added later of safety.
When I was in the Air Force I was a SRT operator, so on one level you’re correct, as it does help to find you. However that said, there are situations where you don’t want to be seen. Inexperienced or newbie’s should use brighter colors probably.
I enjoy light colored tents so that it's bright inside during the day.
I disagree about the color scheme. I use this tent style mostly in rugged weather above timeberline. There is nothing more depressing than spending days weathered in a tent of "earthtones". It feels like your in a dark, dreary coffin. I want my tent to stick out and add some color to a very grey world which I spend weeks in during the fall. Great review though, thank you.
Absolutely agree. I've been.there.
Yes, I would like to see Seirra have different colors for their tents. It use to be that you wanted to blend in to the environment and not stand out, also the rear fly needs to be larger.
Hilleberg needs to send you some tents to review.
Hes used them for years, the size/price on this 4s compared to a hilleberg immatj 2 is a killer
The color is for ski touring or mountaineering (especially on glaciers). Makes it easier to spot your tent in clouds, fog, blowing snow, etc. I've always had a soft spot for Sierra Designs stuff, especially their tents. My wife and I rented a 3 person/3 season once, and experienced what seemed like hurricane force winds in a campground. We were the last ones standing. Thanks for all the videos. You have a huge reservoir of knowledge
The color combination is fantastic; I'm not a fan of drab colors so I'm biased.
Totally agree with on the bright colors of many camping gear
I had a Sierra Designs Lookout CD I bought in the 90s. It served me tremendously well, and had those same colors. Back then those colors were kind of the norm. I don't think stealth camping had even been thought of. I found the yellow a very comforting color inside the tent during the day.

Lots of folks I know would be interested in this tent if the colors where earthy!...Great review Luke.. ATB to You and Yours, Von
luke I am sooooooooo happy som1 finally did a tent review & mentioned the problem with some companies who only use crazy colors. every1 has their own taste but im just like you. coy. brown. ranger green these colors are what I look for when I buy... thx for the review take care
Agree on the Color. I'm in the market for a tent and before you mentioned the color I took this off my list of potential tents.
I think the tent is a good deal. I have a couple of there products that have been good. I am a hunter and hiker that does it mostly to fish mountain streams.

Good review,

Better contrast for finding your tent in a storm when you return to your tent after a summit, or a rescue situation.
What are the poles made of?
I agree with you on the colors cause if you want to stealth camp you were out of luck in that color also it be nice if that back and basically came down to make like a mini vestibule it would still get airflow but it would protect those zippers or make the zippers waterproof

I love the style of the tent! And I also would like to see a split camo/coyote brown tarp.
Well........it would be nice to see this in earth tones, just sayin'. I am impressed with the size and construction. The price takes it out of my reach a bit, but I'm getting a little old to be doing 4 season stuff anyway........I'm more of a spring/fall camper now (I really like A/C when it's hot lol) but even then, if I camped more this would be a nice nice option.
Great and thorough review, Luke. Keep doing what yer doing.
The colors are bright for a reason. They are designed to be easily visible in a snow storm. Lets say you are coming down from a mountain and searching for your tent in a snow storm.
Do I see a blindfold tent setup challenge coming. Could be funny!
Great review, excellent presentation. I agree with the colors, however, I work with SAR here in Canada and would like to see a blaze orange option as well, for obvious reasons. I do agree though that earth tones would bring in a lot of prospective buyers.
Diffrent color would be nice as well and I agree with ya Luke on that assement...!
I prefer the darker colours mainly for lack of bright glare when inside the tent during daytime in direct sun. Give me the earth tones any day over the bright ones.
Military winter style. I love the color
Great review. Thanks for doing that. I just bought one new for 300$!
I understand that bright colors are good to have if you're mountaineering and need to be found in emergencies but not everyone wants that. I specifically bought a earth tone tent 👍

I free with you Luke! I don't want to be a becon at the campground, even a all white tent would be better
Thanks for the review and i would like to buy a tent like that if that would be in OD or camouflage and maybe brown/tan. Great video as always.
I like the tent! The colors really aren't as bad as some! I just might add that tent to my collection!
Great review, thanks, but I like the colors they use. Makes for great camp pix IMO and night time camp pix with a light inside. I agree that the fly should extend more over the back window.
I like the colors. Wish it had an additional panel that had blue. Makes for great pix on top of a mtn.
Yes, earth tone would be nice to see
Colors are a little loud but overall This looks like a Homerun for Sierra Designs, I have 2 questions Luke, Would you recommend this for extended stays (Long Term Base Camp?) And is there a Footprint available for the Vestibule? Great review my friend.
I agree with color choices and extending rear fly a bit more.

Telly Tubby ahhaha I'm with you Luke no way would I buy any tent in that color, ever!
Thanks Luke
Is this tent going to reappear on your channel?
Hard to believe manufacture did not respond to the color options immediately and the rear fly length
As similar comments are all over the forums-
Yes we get the whole mountain rescue reference or brand specific color but....
Color option
And their 3 person option with the two doors and the option to add a second vestibule for a base camp is pretty interesting to think about and mitigates the rear zipper issue-
Yellow/blue..it will sell in sweden
Great tent ,need different colors though!
Great review Luke.

Multicam, Kryptek, and Mossy Oak camouflage variations would be nice, but at a minimum Olive Drab, or some green color.
Maybe it is designed to stand out in the snow, in case of rescue?
I agree with Luke not everyone like the bright colors.
Cool hand Luke😂
The 3 person version of this tent has dual vestibules and does not have the issue about rain coming in from the back. Costs $100 more and weighs about 1lb more.
Agreed about the color. Id buy it if there was an earth tone version. I'm not into neon.
You're right with the Teletubbies playground :)
Great review, Luke. Thank you.
Your ears were really red! Wasn't surprised you put your jacket on.
I don't own a four season tent. I live in Texas and it just doesn't cold enough to merit the expensive purchase. If I were in the market for a 4 season tent, that small fly on the rear would cause me not to purchase this tent. I understand that this is a Alpine/Mountaineering tent thus the bright colors for safety but very few purchasers will use a tent in that role. Earth tones should be a option. Nice review thanks.
Personally, I like the yellow and blue. Especially the yellow which aids in camp location.
Hate to disagree but I personally love that color scheme... to me, if the sh#t hits the fan, you will be easily located with the bright colors!!! It is a 4 season tent.... meant for harsh conditions... can't wait to see the real world test... the footage so far looks crazy!!!! 👍
It's about having a choice.
Agree about these ugly loud colors...did you ever use and video the olive drab Snugpack 4 season tent you reviewed a couple of years ago? You had mentioned that it could be left hooked together to make subsequent set ups quicker. How much time did you end up shaving off by doing that?
You should look at some tents from Helsport. Great products, amazing quality. Pretty sure u will like their products
Buying the convert 3 today with the SunnySports friends and family sale. $400.
Thanks Luke.
I like the color. What about the price, do you think it's overpriced or is it a good deal? I've never seen anyone with ears that red....LOL
Need more color choices, more drab colors please.
Hello buddy. Your so right. Lovely looking tent. Easy to use the vastly is good. See that in sandy or flat earth would be awesome 😂. Thanks for sharing mate an ya time as always. ATVB
I've noticed in recent videos you have started to refer to yourself as cool hand Luke. Can we expect a future video of you eating 50 hard boiled eggs? I feel like this is a a requirement to keep such a legendary designation. -Tony
Likes to videos lots Cool Hand Luke you're not
It's cheaper than a Hilleberg for a four seasons tent, I like the Removable vestibule.
It would be great if they made a larger vestal that you could get separately that was taller and longer
Doesn't Yellow and Blue make green?
Just saying.
Earth tones please!
#Teletubby tent 😂 Can you imagine Poe in camouflage camo! OMG I'm LMBO 😂😂😂
I dont mind the color but a subdued option would be nice
Have ever done a review on other Sierra design tents? Flash series?
What are the hiking pants you have on in this video?
I want bright orange with zombie green myself. LOL
Lime green and orange show up great in the snow. The ARRF truck I had driven showed up great with snow around it.
Ok... Totally off topic... but did you get your ear pierced???? Left ear??? Just say NO to BETS Luke... lol!!!! Great review!!! Keep up the great work!!
I like the design but I'm a huge fan of my snugpak scorpion 3
It's easy to find in the snow. (Trying to find the silver lining)
OD color would be my choice
camo would be awesome
How is the Vango banshee tent brother?
Fly doesn't go to the ground all the way around. So for me it is a non-starter. Probably ok for the winter in the desert though.
Did you even watch the review, dude? 😂
I understand about the colors. Like my little Eureka Solitaire, i really like it but that bright color is awful. I wish this also was available in natural colors, a bit of a deal breaker for me.
If it was OD Green I would of bought one as soon as this video was over.
Coyote brown, o.d. green and snow cammo!
Luke can you do a review of the Jetboil flash?
Yellow and blue is much better than bright orange or green. I would much rather have darker colors in earth-tone for sure. We are supposed to blend in to the environment not stick out. Unless you are on the side of a mountain heading to K2 or something. you need to be seen in the snow. Most of us, want to blend in...
I'm just going to thumbs up all your vids without even watching em all the way through .how does UA-cam work? Does your channel grow from thums up? Comments? I just want your channel to do good
