Thunderstorms this afternoon, so I decided to test my new Gossamer Gear The One seam sealing effort. Here are a few pic’s to give an idea of how a tall person and long bag fit in The One. I’m 6’2” and the bag is a Western Mountaineering Megalite long (6’6”).

Here’s the tent setup with vestibule extended during rain. Not the tightest pitch and I didn’t stake the floor, but it was raining and I didn’t want to get drenched taking pic’s.

The long bag pretty much fills the length, but not actually completely.

With the top of the bag just shy of the sidewall, the foot of the bag has maybe two inches of extra space before the opposite wall.

Here I am lying on the megalite. Not sure if I could swing a neoair under the megalite, but might give it a shot if I find a sale on a regular neoair.

So far, I am very satisfied with The One. It’s crazy light, pitches pretty quickly and it handled the strong rains and occasional winds today very well. I plan on sleeping in it overnight as more rain/storm activity is in the forecast.
