I read through an older thread comparing the Tarptent Rainbow to the MSR CR2.
One of the main thing people were saying about the CR2 is that it's lighter than the Rainbow.
When I look at the spec's I see that the CR2 lists 3lbs 4 oz for the packed weight – Tarptent lists a total of 2.5 lbs.
Am I missing something?
Also – I was wondering about the comments about how the floor of the CR2 is more waterproof than the Tarptent. The FAQ for Tarptent says that they don't recommend needing a ground cloth…what makes the CR2 more waterproof?
Thanks for any info…
