Speaking of the Sierra Designs Cliplight CD 3

It's my only tent and i was thinking of doing the Emmons route again this weekend. You think my little 3 season can handle it? Last time i was up there it was gusting pretty hard by camp shurman. According to the calendar i'm good , but in reality?

A friend of mine took a similar tent to Muir two weeks ago. Weather was beautiful calm and sunny the first night and the tent was great.....then it turned to S$*# in about 2 hours time on Day 2 . He woke up 2 times that night to dig out his tent. The third time he barely got out to seek refuge in the hut. By morning his tent was buried/collapsed/dead. However, the Bibler Torre and the TNF mountain 25 that we had did very well. On the + side, my buddy said that if it weren't for the snow he would have been fine. There were 45+mph winds up there and the only thing that drove him crazy( aside from getting burried)was the noise of the fly slapping.

If the tent you are talking about is the one I am thinking of the main body of the tent is partially mesh. If that is the case spindrift could get you a little wet.

I would consider renting or borrowing a tent.
