[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great tent to replace my 4-5 year-old almost perfect Halo 6p. I’d thought it was indestructible, but it didn’t stand up to a flying chair from a neighboring site during a thunderstorm. Although the Limestone has slightly less floor area, it feels larger since the walls are more vertical than the Halo’s. I’m 6’3” and can walk around upright in more than half the tent. Both vestibules are smaller than the Halo’s, but I’d never really needed/used the enormous front vestibule of the Halo. The Limestone’s vestibule held my chair with no problem and will hold my bike with no problem on the next trip. Just did a 3-day trip in rain and 35+mph gusts and the Limestone appeared to be every bit as sturdy as the Halo. Added benefits: it’s lighter, packs smaller, and is slightly easier to set up since it’s got one fewer pole and the rain fly is smaller and easier to handle. Although I do appreciate the increased privacy from the non-mesh white front door, I almost wish it had see-through mesh and a zippered privacy screen like the Halo. We’ll see how that affects summer ventilation. For this winter trip, ventilation was great - no condensation at all on those 35 degree nights. Bottom line is that Marmot knocked it out of the park again.
