The Kelty Teton 2 Tent – The Latest In Weather Proofing Technology

This is another fantastic tent from Kelty that’s tough enough for backpacking, climbing, but affordable and comfortable enough to use for casual car camping. While Telton 2 may be slightly heavier than higher priced premium products like the MSR Hubba Hubba Tent, the two pole free standing design and Alumininum DAC Pressfit poles are built to last for many years, and the weather protection is on par with the best in the outdoor industry.

The Kelty Teton 2 Uses WTW Wall Construction & ArcEdge Floors

The key to the Kelty Teton’s incredible ability to withstand torrential downpours is Kelty’s Water Tight (WTW) Wall construction and ArcEdge Floor design. By using only coated fabrics on all exposed walls and shingling the seams, Kelty’s WTW walls keeps doors and windows from leaking even when wind and rain is pounding on your shelter. Additionally, Kelty has installed wide flaps along the edges of all doors and windows in order to keep water from seeping in through the zipper, even in severe wind. The ArcEdge Floor design ensures that all seams are kept a few inches off the ground, so that pooling rain water can’t seep in. Additionally, all floor seams are factory taped to ensure water resistance.

We think the best part about Kelty’s weatherproofing is that the Teton 2 has been designed to minimize and eliminate interior condensation. By strategically placing vents, Kelty has managed to regulate interior temperature in a way that ensures you won’t be waking up in a puddle of dew on a cool fall morning. Part of this is due to the large mesh area in the ceiling, but also due to the color coded clip construction, which not only makes the Kelty Teton 2 tent easy to set up for both novices and experienced outdoorsman, but also provides exceptional separation between the fly and tent for superior air flow.

Anything Not To Like About The Kelty Teton 2 Tent?

We mention in our review of the Kelty Teton 4 that we prefer 2 door tents, and this is especially the case with 2 person tents. It just makes squeezing in a little bit easier. However, this is really just a personal preference, for most people 1 door will be perfectly fine. If you’re interested in a similar tent with 2 doors, be sure to check out Kelty’s Gunnison 2.1 tent, which also has a little bit more room.
