Review on Kelty Palisade 6 Person Tent Footprint by Aries Boyce

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works well for tents and shelters

Corner clips fit over the raised bottom posts, work well and are easy to use. When pitching the tent, after raising the poles, turn the tent on its side, attach the groundsheet, and then pitch it back up. I'm torn about the lobby. If the earth cloth had an extension that could act as a floor for the vestibule (like LLBean tents) it would provide better protection from insects but would trap rainwater which could then drain under the tent. Like anything in a tent, it's a compromise. And you can always add your own lobby fabric if you like. After a week of rainy and muggy weather, the bottom of the tent was clean and dry thanks to this fabric.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not the best
