Alps Mountaineering Spring Sale

just got this email. Some really good deals.

I've asked before here and looked around, and their stuff is heavy. But, I've ordered one of the tents for car camping and have really been impressed. Also, have heard good stuff about their gear (other than heavy).

I might bite the bullet and get their Lynx 2 tent. I know its heavy, but it should be a good quality tent. Its 5lbs 2 ozs and only $70. Need to do some more checking though. But thats seems to be a decent weight vs price ratio.
