If you want a true luxury backpacking adventure, you might consider grabbing the Salt Creek SL3. Three doors, two vestibules, and vertical walls give this nifty freestanding tent easy access and plenty of room to move, and its 3-person capacity can be perfect for a couple and their fur baby, a couple and their real baby, or a couple and the extra room they want just to have it. It weighs into the superlight category of tents, yet comes with everything you need for 3-season comfort—waterproof fly for rainy weather, mesh ceiling for clear nights, an easy setup you'll appreciate after a long day on the trail, and reflective guylines to help you find your way home after the campfire's died down.
