NEMO Equipment Kunai 3-4 Season Backpacking Tent
The NEMO Kunai is a 3-4 season hybrid for campers who winter camp a few weekends a year and refuse to own a shelf full of shelters. Convertible mesh panels on the inner tent give it summer ventilation, while the wind-blocking inner body and burly pole structure handle real winter conditions. At around 4 lbs it's lighter than the MSR Access 2 and packs smaller — a genuine advantage if your winter trips start with a hike. The current generation added a reshaped entry, a higher-volume vestibule, and larger convertible mesh panels.

Owning separate summer and winter tents is expensive and eats closet space — the Kunai collapses that into one sub-4.5 lb shelter that ventilates in July and blocks wind in January.
