Up here in the Yukon and I chose the guardian. With the right site selection you can mitigate some of the issues mentioned and I love the weight/size in the pack!
I have the Guardian for solo use, but have lately thought about about replacing it with a Cimarron Light. I'm just under 6' 4", and while there is plenty of room for sitting in the Guardian, getting in and out is a bit annoying. On the plus side, it heats up instantly and I can easily fit the entire pulk with gear inside the tent. I originally chose the Guardian, since it was quite different from the larger Redcliff I also have, but maybe the Cimarron would be a better fit for me.
@@whiteyfisk9769 Yes, condensation is unavoidable in a single tent, especially since I mainly use it in snow. There is less condensation when with a good airflow. I use a towel to wipe it off in the morning, it melts quickly after firing up the stove.
@@OutsiderYeti thank you for the reply. Im in the process of researching hot tents for late season hunting in the cold. My double wall without a stove condensates horrendously in below freezing weather. Have you tried the Seek Outside liners for their tipi tents?
@@whiteyfisk9769I ordered and just got a SeekOutside Cimarron with a half liner, but haven't had time to test it yet. Maybe next week. I'm afraid condensation is unavoidable in cold weather.
Looking at the Guardian for late Fall when I can’t pulk my larger hot tent in. I’ve seen the videos that say it can be pitched closer to the ground to eliminate draft. You could also lose a couple of inches in pole height for the same effect right. Also, why not add the two or three inches and create a rod skirt?
@ Seekoutside I’m considering the Guardian for a solo hot tent for the late season. What size stove would you recommend? Is the large standard too much stove for the Guardian?? Thankyou for your time!
I was lucky enough to get a Cimarron Ultralight (DCF) with a stove jack at 24 oz. Best tent I’ve ever had and light enough for ultralight summer trips! It’s a palace. With the large U-Turn and stove like at 40oz, I have a 2 man hot tent for 4 lbs! Amazing. Love your stuff @seekoutsidegear !!
Helpful vid. Is SO considering offering tents made from Silpoly?
Is the liner available with the light weight Cimarron and if so is it detachable?
It is it function the exact same as our other shelters
Cimmeron looks about right
Hard to beat the size of the Cimarron thats for sure!

Love the look of both of these. Looking forward to getting out and putting the guardian to the test. Both very unique in design. Cheers

What about condensation issues with it, do you have any?

The medium or medium u turn is a fantastic option!
Love my Cimmeron
