Has anyone tried pitching the 2017 MLD Solomid with an offset pole? The MLD website says an inverted V is no longer necessary and it seems the Solomid dimensions have changed from previous years. I’m curious how much room there is with an offset pole and how a sleeping pad/bag or bivy looks in one.
Some background: I used a 2017 MLD Duomid with Solomid XL inner tent on the John Muir Trail this year and found it to be generally great (fast to pitch, storm worthy); however, I’m 5’6″ tall and the Duomid felt overly big. I rarely used the vestibule and everything I had fit inside the inner tent. I’m mainly interested in the Solomid for its smaller footprint for general 3 season solo use.
