Anyone have experience with this tent? I'm debating getting one, mainly for Quetico use. I've seen several people here sing the praises of the Copper spur UL, but not much info on the rattlesnake. I can get a new rattlesnake & footprint for about $300. Is it worth the extra $$$ for the Copper spur UL? I can get that for about $450... I'm just not sure if I can justify the extra $; & looking for other input.
Thanks!

I have a rattlesnake 4, really like it. We ended up getting it because she liked the led light strip. I haven't had it in any severe weather so I cannot comment on its waterproof capacity. We also really like that the top of the tent itself is all mesh which is nice to sleep under the stars without dealing with bugs.
