With plenty of room for two, the Mountain Hard Wear Trango 2 weathers winter storms better than most four-season tents and shelters. The main reason is a dual shelf design that offers extra structural integrity and vestibule support. The shelves serve as a modified internal guy system without the frustrating spider web of taut cords and garrote-like lines. Four new Easton C2 carbon poles augment this innovative reinforcement approach. The Trango 2 has two vestibule areas that also double as dual exits and help provide cross ventilation. A large vent in the center of the upper canopy further facilitates airflow, providing exceptional comfort in warm and humid conditions. Multiple guy-out points allow for added support attachments in the most severe conditions.

Product Reviews

  • No Brainer - This is the best tent I have ever owned. A little heavy but solid as a rock. Just returned from a canoe trip on the Thelon River on the tundra barrens of the Northwest Territories. Had a tough day or two. High winds sleet. I was thanking my lucky stars I had this tent. Dry as a bone stakes out solid in heavy winds. Can’t possibly be a more solid tent on this planet. You will not be dissatisfied.
  • Mountaineering design with 3 season versitility - I used the Trango tent on a recent trip to Mt. Olympus is Washington state. The first night was clear and the ventilation offered with the doors rolled back and the rainfly off was perfect. The next night weather had moved in and the rainfly was needed. Even with three occupants the tent never had the formation of that fine dew layer that comes with confined quarters and limited ventilation. The combination of multiple doors on the rainfly allowed us to adjust the ventilation pattern to get a good nights sleep without waking up all soggy.
  • Wow! - I bought this tent expecting to be pleased. Not having test it through any snow i cant say how it handles it. But on a trip we experienced some pretty foul weather. with nearly 4 days of constant rain and winds of close to 60 m/h this tent held up beautifully. didn’t budge or leak. had no condensation issues at all and am thoroughly impressed.
  • Excellent ! - Just did the first test of my Trango 2. Went camping in Maine for 6 nights. Very solid construction and quick setup. Size is very decent for two people even with my long and extra wide sleeping bag. Ventilation is also pretty good for an expedition tent. A very satisfied Altrec and Mountain Hardware customer.
  • Awesome tent - I spent 3 months wilderness backpacking and I didn’t have a single problem the whole time. It stood against extreme winds on top of mountians and kept me dry at night during 4 days of downpouring. Can’t think of a better tent.
  • This tent rocks - Very solid tent. I have been in many brands but this is by far my best tent ever. Set up is much faster than other four season tents. My tent is from the Imax days on Everest. And it is in exellent condition considering it has been in many winter storms. And if you know were the Cape Breton Highlands are we are talking big winds off the ocean. I just bought the new Tarango 2 can’t wait to try it out.
  • The best tent I’ve had - This tent when set up and staked out seems indestructable. I have never felt so comfortable in a tent before. I realy like all the storage places available. There are pockets all along the walls and the shelves at the two ends…Great Tent!
  • Great Tent! - As a person who has spent many nights on the upper glaciers of Rainer in very high winds(75+)and snow I give this tent two thumbs up we have never had a moment of fear that our tent wouldn’t hold up and unlike many of the other reviewers it could be a matter of life or death if it didn’t hold up.
  • Great Choice for High Altitude - I’ve used Trango 2s and 3s at high camps and elsewhere on McKinley and in Bolivia (Illimani and Huayna Potosi). They are spacious rugged and reliable in all conditions. Mountain Hardwear really pays attention to details and it shows with these tents. They’re not light but for high altitude and bad weather are a great choice.
  • I woke up in a parking lot! - I was camping in Washington and let me tell you mountain hardwear makes a mean tent. I slept through a thunderstorm and the tent didn’t leak but I was suprised to find when I woke up that I was in a Shopping Center Parking lot. The wind tumbled me 6 miles it was terrible but I didn’t notice it until I woke up. Great Tent Mountain Hardwear I should remember to steak it in next time.
